Gibson Acoustic Guitars

With such a prominent position in the world of electric guitars, it's easy to forget that Gibson's roots very much lie within the acoustic instrument domain. Founded in 1902 by Orville Gibson in Kalamazoo, Michigan primarily making Mandolin and folk and bluegrass family instruments the brand quickly made its mark on the guitar world with their pioneering Archtop Guitar design.  By the mid to late 1920s, Gibson launched their own lines of flat-top acoustics, the rest they say is history.

With well over 100 years of history, legacy and innovation, Gibson is renowned for making some of the finest acoustic guitars ever produced. Now proudly built in Montana in the USA, these instruments are meticulously crafted from carefully selected tonewoods and materials and are still largely built by hand. No stone is left unturned in producing some of the best acoustic instruments to bear the famed Gibson logo.

Offering both vintage-inspired reproductions with the Original and Songwriter ranges as well as contemporary interpretations with the Modern and Generation collections, Gibson makes something for everyone. Gibson also offer Custom Shop and even Murphy Lab-aged acoustics for players seeking the most uncompromised, illustrious premium acoustic guitars available.

From their famed J-45 with its rounded shoulders to their classic looking square-shouldered dreadnought Hummingbird and Dove, all the way to Gibson’s parlour-sized LG and L-00 and of course the Jumbo’s including the legendary SJ-200, there is a Gibson acoustic to suit every type of player and music.
