Doesn't matter if you're a PC or a Mac user - being _that_ guy who shows up at a gig, only for it to take 45 minutes of everybody else's soundcheck time to get shit working...it's usually keyboard players using Mac laptops who're responsible for that. The problem isn't the operating system or the manufacturer, it's the fact that musicians are cheap and take their daily-driver laptop to gigs and expect nothing to go wrong; if you're going to do it, use a laptop whose only purpose is to be used at gigs. It's trivial to set up a laptop on _any_ OS to be reliable for that (assuming it's capable of withstanding the hostile stage environment), but you need to make sure it's isolated from everything and has the minimum required to provide that function installed. For what it's worth, I made a knockoff Helix using an Intel NUC, Helix Native, and a MIDI footswitch on Linux. Worked great. The fact is that single-purpose gear is what you need at a gig, and a spare of everything that can reasonably be considered to be capable of going wrong. Also, Glenn - not bad for a studio guy your age. You don't look a day over 103.

Canada understands the concept of personal freedom? What are you smoking? Canada can decide they don't like what registered charities you support and then seize your bank account. Canada decided that because of a shooting in a different country using a gun that is already illegal in Canada, they needed to ban legal handgun ownership and infringe on the rights of Canadians to protect themselves and their families. Canada decided they get to restrict your travel between provinces based on your private medical choices. Regardless of how stupid your choices are, this is not respecting personal freedom. It's treating you like a subject to their cultural regime.

The people who so strongly defend Gibson products illustrate perfectly how branding and brand loyalty works. Because they have such a long history and extensive list of famous musicians who play/played (usually because they have a deal) their guitars the brand has been ingrained in peoples minds as iconic. This is the position that every company strives for, the point where they are synonymous with an industry. That in itself is not a problem for the consumer, the issue is consumers of a well-branded product can feel personally responsible for defending that product. This usually stems from people not wanting to feel like they made a mistake purchasing a particular brands product. The NAME on a product does not necessarily mean it is always top quality. Try to look at each piece of equipment with unbiased eyes. A great company can lose its luster. A company that was once not so great can become great. Be it music equipment, computers, cars or anything else, you will only limit yourself by being married to a particular brand. It is not the job of the consumer to defend a brand or product!!

Fender has had periods that their products were pretty substandard, So has every manufacturer that's been in the game long enough. If Gibsons are so "yesterday" why are there countless of companies copying their products? Hmmm. If Gibson was "overpriced" their sales would drop and they would have to lower prices to match demand. However; the opposite is happening. Gibson can't keep up with demand even with price increases. Affordability is at this point your problem, not Gibson's.

Nobody says Gibsons aren't "beautiful". In fact, it may be the only thing Gibson and their detractors can both agree on. Many, many people say Gibsons are fragile. Unnecessarily so, because Gibson insisted on trademarking an obsolete headstock design simply so nobody else could copy it. It creates the unavoidable appearance that the company actively prefers their product to be more breakable rather than less profitable. Any luthier in the country could tell you exactly the same thing. I'm glad yours is holding up well, but go ask Angus Young how many SG headstocks he's gone through in his career, if it isn't at least a dozen I will eat my hat.

i've had a SG junior and a 61 reissue, both great guitars, sounding massive, mostly the Junior, but both never stayed in tune, solely because of the cheap ass plastic nut (that was pre-plec, so maybe it's a past issue?). The 61 kept breaking strings because of those cheesy metal bridge saddles that get chewed by the strings and end up cutting them. Had to replace by graphtec on that one, the LP, the 335, and explorer. So yea, out of the box, it's okay, after a few months, you have to basically start replacing parts no matter how high end the model is. None of my non gibson guitars have had those issues because they use better parts off the bat : different bridge styles, or better saddles and better nut materials, better nut work (nutjob?^^). I guess Gibson's obsession with "authenticity" makes them keep using outdated materials and designs that keep causing issues. But again, those issues may not appear depending how heavy you play, what string gauge you use etc. I just kept having them on all the Gibsons i've owned over the years, and that's why they now are pretty display pieces for me, that i cherish because of the memories attached to them, and not because of the brand legacy :p

Ironically, as an American citizen, I do feel that Gibson's quality is definitely over exaggerated, and the price tag on every single one of their guitars and basses shows that too. I'd much rather spend my money on other American made guitars or basses like Schecter, Jackson, Dean or even Fender, and still get an American made model at practically half the price! These are brands that at least have better quality builds with better hardware installed depending on your options. And to add even more insult to myself, I still don't make enough to buy an American made model from either of those companies, so my opinion is more than likely irrelevant... But at the same time, I don't give a flying fuck. Cheers, and happy Canada Day to you Glenn. (Edited due to recent information in the comments regarding the ESP company.)

I want Gibson to be a good company but their entire business approach is alienating towards musicians and it really shows.

I'm a live sound/video/lighting guy - recently did a show running video on a well spec'd iMac. Everything went fine until I got thrown a link to download an updated presentation slide. My show computers NEVER touch the internet due to updates, etc. Sure enough, audience enter, show starts, Mac crashes, after turn on the app wont start as it can now see there is a 1 day old update. Cant update as new version only compatible with 2 week old ios update. Had to get out ol trusty win7 laptop which always works fine. Turning off updates doesnt always help!

I think Gibson’s “Authentic” and “Icons” campaigns are bullshit, but they should be afforded their copyrights. The thing is they didn’t really defend themselves in the past, other than some 70s Ibanez copies, but whatever. If people want to use their shapes to make a better guitar, great, just obtain a license, or wait for the copyright to expire, or better yet design your own guitar shape(s). Just because people want these classics shapes is no reason to deny Gibson their rights, even if they seem like a flaky power hungry company. Gibson has been around for ages and they know full well that many of their original “iconic” designs were just knockoffs of designs that had been around for ages. Who takes credit for the design of the classical guitar, or the dreadnaught? Gibson doesn’t HAVE to be an ass about people stealing their designs (even though they are), but they have a right to the original ones they came up with. I also think Fender has been waiting to see how this goes with Gibson, and we could see the same thing happen with Fender too. As you said, it’s a very interesting time to be a guitar maker whose products are all based on pre-existing designs.

Exactly. If a guitar maker has a good product that can stand up on its own, why do they need to copy other guitar makers' body shapes? If the only way to sell their product is to make it look exactly like an SG ( like Glenn's Harley Benton) or a Flying V (Glenn's LTD) then they clearly have no faith in the actual quality of their product.

Glenn, you always hit the nail right on the head. ( although I am a bass player who does practice and was always ready for the studio) to the point: The greatest guitars I have ever owned, was a BC Rich Warlock NJ series, that I bought at a pawn shop for $80. It was a work horse. Then for recording, I got a DeArmond 6 string for less than $100 . Again a work horse that stayed in tune. ( Les Paul design). Guitars are subjective to the buyer, but buying less expensive products can be better. I know guitarist who only buy expensive guitars, it's like drugs to them. And they snicker at my cheaper ones. But it's me who laughs while they are busy tuning their stuff when I am done in seconds. How it feels in your hands, how it plays and sounds is more important to me. Keep up the great work, and LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL!!!!

To that guy in the Gigging with a Laptop comment: Did a gig where the previous sound crew quit and took all the gear so the next day the club owner and his friends were trying to set up for 5 bands! I tried to help connect all this hodge podge gear they bought at guitar center that day and they had a million of 1 type of cable, but zero of what they needed. We played with 1 mic for vox, 1 for kick and that's it. No monitors for up front and 1 for the drummer. We did 2 instrumentals before they got the microphone to work right and I had to stop mid song when I saw some girl in the audience hand signal she couldn't hear my vocals, so I had to get them to turn the vox up. The band with the backpack rigs like axe fx, sorry. They couldn't play. Because you need a working sound system and this was that one in a millionth time where that's what wasn't working. So, only us 'old school' guys with our analog half stacks and acoustic drums could play.

A couple of years ago I toured the Taylor factory. I asked the tour guide about their machines and intellectual property and his response was basically “we don’t really care. If Gibson or Martin or another company took our machining they still would build Martins or Gibsons and not Taylors so it wouldn’t impact us.” It really changed my thinking about brand property and rights. I liked Taylor before that tour but I loved them after. They’re the anti-Gibson. If you’re making a great product, don’t worry about whether your competitors copy you - they can’t.

I agree, but Gibson's quality control has nothing to do with every cheap guitar manufacturer knocking of their designs - like the LTD "Flying V" and the Harley Benton "SG" continually being jizzed over by Glenn in recent videos including this one. Ask yourself: If they're such good guitars, why do they have to look just like a Gibson? Answer: Because if they came up with their own original body designs in stead of copying these iconic (and copyrighted) Gibson designs, nobody would even look at them, let alone buy them.

There are so many Gibson alternatives out there at an affordable price. I've picked up some 70's "lawsuit" Era guitars, including some set neck SG copies and a 70's Electra, for less than $300 each. Edwards (made by ESP in Japan) are some of the best kept secrets out there. I snagged their 335 copy for less than half the price of a new Gibson and the quality is better.

I've never bought either Gibson or Fender as I have, for over 30 years, felt they were over-priced and they just seem so generic and largely uninteresting. It's telling that I find the Epiphone brand more interesting in terms of fittings, quality and value for money, same goes for Jackson or some of the other Fender suib-brands. Just snaffled myself a Schecter Banshee Mach for ~$1800 (not sure as I am in the UK) and I can honestly say it's, by far, the best guitar I have ever owned or played. It's immaculate, plays like butter and sounds incredible. I was trying to point out flaws in the Mustaine V seen by both you and Troglys to a Gibson fanboi and he said, no word of a lie, "I wouldn't be interested in that particular guitar anyway." totally blinkered view of the brand. P.S. Gleeeeeeeeennnnnnnn, where do you buy your t-shirts? Some of them are fricking awesome!

Top-of-the-line Gibson production models (i.e. Les Paul Custom) average about $4000 new, whereas top-of-the-line Fender production models (i.e. American Deluxe series) average about $1700. These days, the only way I'd buy a Gibson is if it was made pre-2005. I absolutely agree with you on Epiphone, they've been coming out with some amazing stuff. I also really like Schecter; I own two, and would definitely buy more.

Seriously, windows works just fine. If you plug in a device and have issues with it, it's the crap coded driver from the manufacturer, not windows. People keep recycling this line that was true about 20 years ago without ever updating their knowledge or experiences. I've used both RME and Focusrite hardware with various windows devices and they have been zero issue and rock solid. If you are crashing, it's some other bullshit software running on your computer. And if windows was so super unstable and shitty, you wouldn't have had any game audio, game development, or visual fx in every industry for the last couple of decades. That said, even though the Mac uses a class compliant audio subsystem in the OS, it's not always better. My M1 macbook has much more noticeable latency (which you can do nothing about) than my desktop PC running RME drivers. I've cranked the usb buffer size down toe 64 samples and ran without issues or stutters. Not going to get anywhere near that on a laptop, or most Macs. You prefer a mac, fine, enjoy. But don't make excuses for that as if the alternatives were flaming crap. It's a ridiculous and indefensible position.

After doing these Open Mics for a few years, I’ve gotten used to doing a new sound check every 10-15 minutes, so I can dial someone in very quickly. It’s almost faster than loading their settings. Presets are good for learning, because they’re a crutch. If you’re ok with that in your professional goings on, cool, but I’m not.

I had a Marlboro app. I made it sound amazing were they cute tiny pedal board but it wasn't loud enough and when I asked them to make it and put it in the PA system it sounded better than the lead guitar player! They told me if you don't have the equipment, you can't be in the band. By the way, his rig, was a fender m80 and it sounded like bees in a shoebox. We played on the same circuit a year or two later when I saved up enough to get a proper rig and they were floored by my tone. It's not what you have, it is what you do with it! Keep in mind kids! Do you not worry about your tone, practice your feel your work ethic with your guys and give it everything you got on stage and in the practice room! Lots of luck, keep rock and roll alive!
