Hi all.

I'm sick of trawling through Google looking for online guitar shops that sell Gibson guitars, so I thought I'd ask here. If anyone has a favourite shop, please list it. I'm looking at some stage of getting a Gibson Firebird VII.

Thanks everyone.

Thanks TV. Man those Custom Shop guitars are waaaaaaay over priced. Don't know if you've ever been to the Ed Roman guitar website, but he's got a lot of interesting things to say about Gibson guitars, but I've got to have a Firebird VII!!!!!

It's a great site, lot's of info:

Here's a local brick and mortar store that also does a lot of business on line.

I've heard from pretty reliable sources that it's a great guitar store.

Warpdrive Music (online name) or Cream City Music (brick and mortar store name)

Happy hunting,

My last purchase - a 6120AM - came from Steve Pisani at Sam Ash Custom Guitars. Beautiful guitar, great price, safely delivered via UPS all the way to Norway Smile

Just out of curiosity, Tavo; how many Gretsches have you had through the years...? Cool

I'm also looking for a Jet (Silver-, Duo-, whatever), preferably one with a Bigsby and DynaSonics. I had the worst experience of my life (guitar-wise, that is) last year during a flight to Germany for a gig. The airline somehow managed to send my 6120 to the wrong airport/country. When I finally got it, the neck was broken in two places; by the headstock and by the heel. I did the gig with a borrowed 6119 (and a broken heart Sad ), so I thought I'd try to find a Gretsch solidbody for "flying gigs". If I put the guitar in a gig bag, they'll have to let me bring it on board as a carry on luggage. If it's a smaller one (than the hollowbodys), that is...

Dave's Guitar had a gold Sparkle Jet for $ 1250,- a while ago, but by the time I'd raised the cash, it was gone Rolling Eyes So if anybody has any suggestions, please PM me. Thanks!

I too can vouch for Warpdrive. I purchased an '04 Purple Hot Rod there. Very good pricing, quality merchandise, and, they know how to ship guitars.
