History of the company The home of Gibson electric guitars today is "Gibson USA". it was built in in Nashville in 1974 specifically for the production of Gibson's Les Paul guitars. in the 1970's the enitire guitar industry went into a slump, but Gibson remined strong. Two legendary guitarists joined Gibson- B.B. King in 1980 with the Lucille model and Chet Atkins in 1982 with his new concept of a solidbody acoustic guitar. Gibson world headquarters moved to Nashville in 1984 with the closing of the Kalamazoo plant when they were facing financial struggles. The financially troubled company was rescued in January 1986 by Henry Juszkiewicz and David Berryman, and the new owners quickly restored Gibson's reputation for quality as well as its profitability.
Famous guitar models: the ES-175, ES-335, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, SGs and Les Pauls
Today's Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar.
Current status: They are doing very well, and are continuing to produce these classic guitars that individuals know and love.
'' NEW AND IMPROVED'' ''Strong enough for a rockstar'' our product is a guitar with stronger strings, but that will still sound the same. it would be profitable because more musicians would but it so they would not have to keep replacing their strings.
