| 1898.1 | definately Mr Music | MILKWY::JACQUES | If you don't stop, you'll go deaf | Thu Jul 12 1990 15:22 | 10 |
| If you are looking for a used instrument, I would suggest you go
straight to Mr. Music in Allston. He has an incredible selection
of Les Pauls, SG's, ES335/45/55, Arch-tops, etc. in stock. He
is located on Harvard Ave, just off Cambridge street.
If you are looking for a new instrument, Check out EU Wurlitzers,
Mr C's in Marlboro, or Daddy's Junky Music.

| Hampshire Music Co. Rt. 101 in Nashua, N.H. is an authorized Gibson
dealer. They have Dove's, Hummingbirds (I have one), the Chet Akins
electric-classical, Country-Gentlemens and also banjos. Quite a
good selection for summertime pickin' & grinin'.

There's a Gibson Dealer on Broadway in Derry, NH.
FWIW - Daddy's has recently become a Gibson dealer. You can
read the general consensus on Bathing at Daddy's in other notes.

| If you're talking about electric Gibsons, hit NEXT UNSEEN now; I'm
talking acoustic here.
I have an old Gibson J-45 I bought new in 1965 and a 1972 Martin D-18 I
bought in 1980. A few weeks ago, I was considering buying a Guild I'd
looked at, and having not bought a guitar in a long time, I went up to
Hampshire Music to play some and get a feel for what prices were, etc.
The did have a bunch of new Gibsons, including a Dove and a
Hummingbird, but I was NOT impressed with the sound or the quality of
these new instruments. I've heard or played quite a few Japanese
guitars (the Yairi Alvarez Hummingbird copy, to name just one) that
would beat these instruments hands-down for less money, and that
doesn't even include the old American standbys, or an older
Hummingbird.
Of course, I could be wrong; maybe after a few years those Gibsons
will mature and sound better, but it's gonna have to be a LOT better
before they earn their purchase price, in my estimation.
Just my $.02,

| 1898.6 | Acton Music | CRONIC::SHAYNA::PCUMMINGS | There's a mingus amonk us | Fri Aug 03 1990 20:28 | 8 |
| Acton Music (RT 27) recently became a Gibson dealer and have some
nice Les Pauls, SG's and ES335 models. Don't think Acton Music is
generally considered cheap, but I've chewed them down on low price
models.......

| I personally think Acton Music ctr is a waste of time....they charge
MUCH too much money for their guitars (like close to list!) and their
sales people aren't too nice IMHo. Better off going to Wurlitzer's or
something.
