I'm Gretchen Men, that was Song for George by Eric Johnson, and this is a Gibson G00. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] I've teamed up with Gibson and Guitar World to show you this new [D] model, which is based
on the Gibson L00. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
It has the same classic body shape, but with some reimagined details like a very comfortable
thinner body depth.
[D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ The top is solid Sitka spruce, and it has a slight dome [G] which gives it that signature
mid-range. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The back and sides are solid walnut, the neck is Zilli, [Dm] and the fingerboard and bridge are [G] striped ebony.
_ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ There are a [Dm] number of features that stood out to me, [G] especially in an instrument that's this affordable.
[D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] The dovetail neck joint, _ the nitrocellulose finish, which gives both a really nice playing
feel, I love that [D] it's not sticky, and beautiful aging characteristics. _
It's typically found in high-end instruments.
_ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
There's a port that was brought over from an original [D] Gibson blueprint from the _ 1960s.
Gibson tested a number of possible port positions and found the sweet spot [G] on positioning and
size for optimal playing feedback. _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ This is a really cool feature as it directs some of the sound up towards your ears. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
It's built in the US, in the same factory as all Gibson acoustics, so it provides musician-friendly
pricing while [D] being built to become [A] an heirloom instrument, with attention to quality and detail.
_ _ _ _ This [Dm] model does not have [G] a pickup, so what [Dm] you're hearing is it mic'd going into my audio
interface and logic, with a little [D] touch of added reverb. _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
One last thing I gotta mention is the playability, because I'm not somebody who plays steel string
with [G] exclusive focus.
My [D] calluses and my muscles are more [G] used to a combination of electric playing and nylon
string and a little bit of steel string, but if I have to put in a lot of hours [D] or a whole
day on [G] the steel string acoustic, I really tend to feel it, so pairing a piece like Song
for [D] George that's a little bit more challenging and something that I need more than an hour
or two to get ready to perform, _ being able to put in the requisite time [G] on the instrument
and not feel like I'm in a lot of pain was a huge bonus.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _

Hope this might be helpful, and I'm always sending you my best wishes for lots of fun
and exploration on your musical journeys. _ _ _ _ _
