Heads up..Gibson Memphis ES Deal

pmg

Peach did a mail out on '63 335s and 64 345s with varitone (both not in natural) so there may have been some other deals too.

Are they on Peach's website?

Not sure, they were emailed out.  Must say these are great guitars and good deals, especially the coda deals

Oooh what did you go for?

The 345 for me, I think its the one in the link that was in stock already. I have some pics Doug sent, any idea how I post? Am new here and can't see a way to upload pics, which seems crazy for a guitar site!

I havent worked out how to spellcheck or edit either....

Think the old vari tones weighed in a lot heavier with heavy old school chokes these days they have done a great job on the one on my 64 345. All really useful sounds before you start playing with tone and blending the pickups the thing is full of great tones for many different styles. 

Nice set of offers Coda I am very tempted for the 330 very nice.

@richie that is lovely!

Thanks! Been looking for a nice 335 for a year or so, jumped in when this deal came up as I've missed out on a few 2nd hand bargains this year already for being too slow. This one jumped out at me on the website and was a bit cheaper than the 335s as well - can't wait to get this today!

@meltedbuzzbox lol I apologise. I intended to type 'cat 'o nine tails'. Stupid autocorrect.

Reading this, seeing the same pretty much at Peach and reading the Gibson debt post makes me think the company is way down the slippery slope. Might be worth waiting for Xmas to see how far the prices slide on what seemed beyond reductions

Didn't Doug say these are 2015 models.  It does suggest over production if this many haven't sold yet.  There must be thousands of 2016 models still in warehouses.

Gibson need to downsize a bit, make fewer guitars and sell them at full price.  The problem is that they won't be able to service their debt mountain that way.  I think it is only a matter of time until there is a chapter 11 bankruptcy or a sale to a new owner.
