  • Gibson Declares Bankruptcy
    Gibson Declares Bankruptcy David Diaz, CEO,Davenport Laroche Another timeless rock and roll icon is headed to “rehab”. This time, though, it’s not a performer. It’s the brand that tied together some of rock’s biggest names, from Elvis Presley to Keith Richards, Jerry Garcia, Slash, Ace Frehley and Jimmy Page. Each of these icons played Gibson. Slash, in fact, was an official brand ambassador for the guitar brand he proudly played on stage during a meteoric six-year run with Guns ‘n Roses. Seeing one of the new breed of guitar gods ripping through sets on his Gibson inspired a new generation of shredders to grab their Les Paul or Standard, jam and dream. Now, though, Gibson has hit a major roadblock, filing for bankruptcy protection as the company struggles to mitigate half a billion dollars in debt. As a result of the bankruptcy filing, the press is reporting that creditors will “take control” of the company, that was founded way back in 1902 and helped defined American music for more than a century. Because Gibson guitars were so popular for so many years, many are wondering why, exactly, the company is in such dire straits. There are several reasons, though many are blaming the relatively recent acquisition of Philips’ consumer audio division a few years back. That, in fact, is the first thing Gibson’s new ownership plans to let go in an attempt to get the business back in the black. The company will divest itself of the line of headphones, loudspeakers and turntables that have proven to be a drag on profitability.

  • Here It Extends Over the Body
    a r c h t o p . c o m Installation Instructions: Suspended Pickguards (Preview page only: the complete version of these instructions is supplied free with all orders for pickups or wiring kits.) Installing a floating pickguard on a new or vintage archtop guitar is not a complicated operation per se. However, if you have any question about your ability to install the parts without damaging the instrument, we recommend that you give the materials and these instructions to an experienced repair technician. A professional installation is well worth the peace of mind in getting it done right the first time. However, if you are in a locality without a skilled luthier, or have the requisite experience, tools, and skills yourself, you may wish to follow the instructions below to complete the installation on your own. The procedures outlined below are for informational purposes only, and archtop.com assumes no liability of any kind pursuant to their execution. Tools and materials required: • Hand drill, power or manual • Small countersink bit · Miniature clamp with padded jaws · Machinist rule or other fine-graduated straightedge · Acrylic plastic glue or model cement · Padded workbench 1) Preparation: Pad workbench with towels or other soft cloth to avoid abrasion to guitar finish. Many new guards are supplied with a clear protective plastic film cover, which should be left in place until installation is completed. Make sure guitar is strung and bridge is in proper position before beginning installation. Position pickguard onto guitar, making sure to allow adequate clearance for easy finger access to the bridge adjusting wheel.
