... And maybe that was one of the reason so many great guitarist has chosen gibson instead others, not only the one who named SoloDallas:Brian May, queenDavid Gilmour, he now switch fender with gibsonJimmy Page, from Led ZeppelinFrank Zappaand the list go on..

BCRICH, youre fucking wrong, gibson isnt that commercial. The only ads ive seen were from the signatures guitars ie slash's new, but beyond that none...nevertheless you say there are lot of better guitars (??), gibson guitars have a unic sound, that was what it make it popular, they use the best and finest materials.and imo today are the best guitar by far, bcause their signature classic sound, beauty and quality.Amen

Seriously guys....Im a bassist here so im speaking from that point of few..and from a bass perspective the quality control of Epiphone has SURPASSED Gibson's...I have an Ibanez and it can keep up with a Fender P-bass easy...And guitars are differently i know, but with the way guitars are manufactured today the gap between an ibanez or a fender or gibson has greatly shrunk...One main reason that thoses two companies thrive are because of people who shop for name brand guitars

you're an idiot. period.

SoloDallasII (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)

LOL, they STILL use Gibsons. Slash barely ever uses his Mockingbirds; only when he needs a whammy bar.Petrucci sucks, as do Vai and Satriani. All they need is a guitar that they barely need to touch the fret and the note is already ringing. No action, no sustain. They could be made of Balsa wood, it wouldn't matter with all the gain and effects they use.Give it up man, all the good guitarists use Gibsons or Fenders.

back THEN they were good, 70's, Now tons of artists use different guitars, Slash plays a BC Rich Mockingbird, John Petrucci uses Ibanez, as well as Vai and Satriani for that matter, Santana uses PRS, the list goes on. I'm not saying Gibsons aren't good guitars, but if you asked half of the rock/metal guitarists what they prefer, they'd say another guitar, probably not Gibson.
