Gibson L6S Silverburst - "Worst idea Gibson has had in a while" - James...
Unfortunately I returned this thing two days after buying. The sound is just that bad. Functionally it is a pretty good, although honestly very ugly design. I was told gibson actually made this style of guitar a while back and it never caught on then either. Apparently they had the bright idea to do it again with terrible tone woods. It's a...

Gibson Marauder - "Interesting old Gibby..." - King Loudness
All in all I think this is an interesting guitar from Gibson. Sure, it's a boat anchor, but it looks and sounds pretty unique and offers something different in a world of more of the same. They run about $700 used which is a decent enough deal for a vintage USA made Gibson and if you see one, it's definitely worth trying just for the fun of it. ...

Gibson L6S Antique Natural - "Modern take on a 70s Gibson with simplified switching" - tjon901
This guitar was pretty underrated back in the day. It looks kind of odd and has too much maple for any hardcore Gibson player but it is still a decent guitar overall. The lack of Bill Lawrence pickups is disappointing but a sign of the times since he left Gibson years ago. The simplified switching provides much more usable tones than on the orig...

Gibson Nighthawk Standard 3 - "Could be better" - yoTrakkz
This guitar, unlike most Gibson, isn't too expensive. I can't say I wouldn't recommend it to other people, especially since most of my peers wouldn't be able to buy a nicer Gibson without some serious saving. However, I realized a long time ago that it would be worth it to eventually just buy a nicer one, it will pay off more in the long run., I...

Gibson L6-S 1974 - "classic guitar" - ericthegreat
I own this guitar now for 17 years and it has had its ups and downs. First I had to replace the tuners as they didn't really take a lot of beating. So I installed Schaller Locking Tuners. After about seven years the neck started warping in the middle - which is the worst place. I had a luthier take out the frets and file down the neck (having to...

Gibson RD Standard Exclusive - "Reissue of a 70s Gibson" - tjon901
The RD is a cool design and Im glad Gibson did not forget it. Even though this model is pretty different than the original RD this new model will appeal more to the Gibson player. The original models with their maple bodies and necks didnt really carry the Gibson tone. The complicated electronics in the original models also caused problems and a...

Gibson [Melody Maker Series] Joan Jett Signature Melo... - "Simple Riff Machine" - tjon901
These are one of those signature guitars where Gibson made them more to pay tribute to the artist and not really to give consumers what they want. I dont think many people were looking for a guitar like this. This guitar is good for people who want to be like Joan Jett or Blackhearts fans other than that this guitar is overly limiting and there ...

Gibson Les Paul DC Pro - "double cut LP" - tjon901
These guitars were never super popular but they are good solid guitars that solve a lot of the problems Les Paul players have and dislike. It seems that whenever Gibson has a problem they either ignore it and everyone keeps complaining or they fix it and no one bothers to accept the fix. If you want a Les Paul that plays like an SG but still sou...

Gibson Nighthawk Standard 3 - "Unique sounding Gibson" - tjon901
This guitar kind of got mired in the back when it first came out. Now with Gibson doing reissues of everything not from the Norlin era it could come back and be popular. It is one of the more versatile sounding traditional guitars that Gibson has ever put out. If you see one at a guitar store or something used you should check it out. You will b...

Gibson [Melody Maker Series] Joan Jett Blackheart - E... - "Super simple signature guitar" - tjon901
This guitar is good and simple but it is not really something you would buy if you are not a Joan Jett fan. Gibson makes other guitars like this in a similar style and layout. With the mahogany body and satin finish with the thin mahogany neck this guitar is very easy to play and get into. The single pickup means you wont get much versatility bu...
