“Gibbon” Les Paul? Japan 70s.

Anyone ever heard of this brand? I just played one. Had the dirtiest strings and it is so humid my fingers were soft. But it felt really good and was really cheap. Can’t find much info though. It is set neck.

It will pair well with a Gorilla amp.

Probably a very good match for me too according to some.

Expect slightly better than Antonia/Sakura quality.
They didn’t have glued necks back in my day.
Would have been $59 new.

That’s the problem when simultaneously posting on Grinder - lines do get crossed.

I'm typing like a boomer because it's a meme in the online guitar community that boomers constantly misspell "gibson" as "gibbons" or "gibbuns"

What? No way! Fish net crop tops and blonde tips are very, very straight.

Unfortunately you just described what the men were wearing, not the women

I think your answers are right here. I have not heard of them, that means nothing. Sometimes you have to step out a little.

I played a £25 Shaftesbury Rickenbacker copy when I first started. Through a Jap fuzz/Wah. Linear Concord 30, 2 Fane 1x12’s.
This would have been a real upgrade.
