There is a new run of Chambered 68 Customs out.
Ed King
At the Gibson Custom Shop's Summer Jam 07 they were finally discussing the chambered-reissues (Cloud 9's). Since 2004, Gibson has not advertised them but now the 58's are listed. Check them out. EdKing (Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist and author of "Sweet Home Alabama") came by to look at Les Pauls and decided that out of all the Les Pauls he has tried over the years, that a Cloud 9 sounded closer to his original 59 Les Paul than any solid body Les Paul. Check out what Ed has to say.
This is one of my greatest moments when I got to meet Ed King.
Another great moment (below) Edwin Wilson, myself, and Yasuhiko Iwanade
"Great sounding guitar with lot's of sustain, warm woody tone, not too dark. Wonderful harmonically rich feedback through a hot Marshall."---Steve Domenico
Take it from a Pro.... Jimmy Allen from "Puddle of Mudd" says: ""1958 VOS CHAMBERED LES PAUL NICE VINTAGE LOOK .VERY CORRECT LOOKING. THIS ONE IS STOCK,DIDNT NEED TO CHANGE A THING. ITS ALL THERE. THESE VOS GUITARS SOUND AND FEEL INSANE, NOTES JUMP OUT AND BLOSSOM EVEN WHEN ITS UNPLUGGED. SOUND IS MUCH SWEETER THIS TIME I THINK, MAYBE BECAUSE OF THIN SKIN FINISH. THE FEEL,THE TONE, THE LOOK. NAILED IT THIS TIME!!!! "
Welcome back Jimmy! CR64009 & CR84009 & CR86002
I took this one at Keil Auditorium in St. Louis in 1976 or 1977.
