    Had my grandfathers ‘59 country and western fixed up after decades in a cardboard case. It meant A LOT for my grandma to give it to me, and it meant even more to her that we got it fixed correctly at Gibson. I can’t say enough how professional these people were. From communication before, me dropping it off, and parents picking it up on their anniversary and getting a small tour. EVERYTHING was an experience. Grandpa would be so proud the job you all did to keep it vintage, but also make it able to last another 60+ years. From the bottom of my heart thank you all so much. -Roger Caruthers

    Just recently I received back a RFQ from Gibson Repair and Restoration for work to be done on my Les Paul Custom.
    I think many people would be surprised a the prospect of spending over $1300 for a re-fret.
    To Gibson's credit they are not the highest quote I've received back for the job and are in fact very competitive in their pricing as compared to other well known shops.
    And before I get a ton of reply's about the high price I'll add it is a 1986 Custom w/Maple Fingerboard which will need to be planed and refinished in lacquer. There is more involved as compared to an Ebony Fingerboard re-fret. Also, the price includes SS Frets.

I would also like to change my early 2019 headstock veneer to the later 2019 where it has "Gibson" pearl inlay logo . I have a string butler on my Flying V that helps with tuning stability but have to take the truss rod cover off . The truss rod is where the Gibson logo is on the early 2019's . I paid $1700 cause I wanted a Gibson and seeing that logo makes me proud . GIBSON , can you help ??

    Gibson Guitars, please read:
    You said 'We have great relationships with many of our clients and artists' therefore read this:
    I commented on Kings of Leon's Stormy Weather official video that came out a few months ago, and I commented this:
    "Gibson guitars, if you see this, develop a signature thunderbird for Jared , an ES335 for Caleb, and a Les Paul for Matt" This comment got 330 likes. Kings of Leon have used Gibson guitars since before 2000, this shows you, you need to make them Gibson artists ; they deserve it, as they are known all across the world.
    Thank you.

    So Gibson but I had buzzing I'm the D and the g string above the 14th fret and I was told that there was a slight warp in the neck. You put it on your plaque machine that didn't solve the problem and you told me you couldn't fix it and you told me either you would send me a new 2016 r9 to replace it in the same color. First off that's lazy customer service you don't people spending thousands of dollars in a guitar and you're telling him there's a little bit of a warp that develops in the neck and you guys are either too cheap or too lazy it's easier to give out a new guitar that means you think your guitars are expendable because I certainly don't I look for that guitar for a longtime picked out that specific model I picked out that specific guitar because of his residence because of its neck because of its color and because of the Flaming on the top he treated it like it was Expendable in his garbage and just sent it a new one like the cheeseburger or something it is not just a guitar it's a Gibson if you can't be trusted to correctly repair a guitar that you guys made that went wrong why should anyone trust you to fix something of theirs or something vintage I mean it seems you don't think much of guitars
