Who is Margo Price?
Margo Rae Price was born April 15, 1983 and is an American country singer-songwriter, producer, and author based in Nashville. Margo grew up in the small town of Aledo, Illinois where she played piano and sang in a church choir before studying dance and theater at Northern Illinois University. In Nashville, Margo worked several jobs, including waiting tables, installing and removing residential siding, and teaching children to dance. Margo and her husband, guitarist Jeremy Ivey, were part of Secret Handshake, a band that only played political songs before she and Jeremy started Buffalo Clover and later formed Margo and the Pricetags. Her debut solo album Midwest Farmer's Daughter was released on Third Man Records on March 25, 2016. The album was recorded at Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. In December 2018, Price received a nomination for Best New Artist at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.


Margos first Signature-Gitarre
The music of multiple award-winning artist Margo Price transcends the boundaries of traditional country, Americana, and classic rock. Her Gibson J-45 acoustic has always been by her side during her rise as a top country artist. Gibson Custom’s Margo Price J-45 embodies the spirit, vision, and talent that has driven Margo to stardom and continues the nature – the med model tradition of Gibson. The Gibson Margo Price J-45 was inspired by her mid-60s J-45, a guitar she’s called “my main baby; my guitar I play all the time.”

Features of Gibson Margo Price J-45
The Gibson Margo Price J-45 features a slightly thinner mahogany body. The top is made of Red spruce with traditional hand-scalloped advanced X-bracing. The mahogany neck with a rounded profile features a rosewood fretboard. Grover strap tuners with white buttons on the headstock. The nut and saddle are made of bone, and the bridge pins are made of TUSQ. The Margo Price J-45 also comes equipped with L.R. Baggs electronics, so it’s studio and stage-ready right out of the included hardshell case. Margo was also inspired by red-tailed hawks, which feature prominently on the distinctive double 50s-style pickguards of her new signature guitar.

“Red-tailed hawks have always been symbolistic to me. I see them everywhere, and I always have, as they are common all over the United States, but to me, they are otherworldly, and they always come to me in my time of need with messages of strength and perseverance. Red, as a color, relates to love, passion, and even anger, matters that we typically would associate with the heart, but if you look closely, the ends of the feathers are dipped in white, and the bird itself has a spiritual nature to them. When I’m on long road trips, I look out the window and count them alongside the highway. They pass over me at the most kismet times, reminding me to find strength in my vulnerability and to open up and connect to those around me. I hope this guitar will remind those who play it these lessons as well.”

About Gibson
Die US-amerikanische Gibson Guitar Corporation, gegründet 1902 von Orville Gibson in Kalamazoo, Michigan, wurde zu Beginn bekannt durch die Fertigung von Mandolinen und Banjos. Heutzutage befindet sich der Hauptsitz der Firma in Nashville, Tennessee und Gibson zählt zu den weltweit namhaftesten und renommiertesten Herstellern von E-Gitarren.
Das Modell Les Paul, benannt nach seinem Erschaffer Lester William Polsfuss, ist eine der bekanntesten und meistverkauften E-Gitarrenformen aller Zeiten und begründete die Bauform der Single Cut-Gitarre, die von zahlreichen anderen Herstellern kopiert, übernommen und neuinterpretiert wurde. Die Les Paul wird hauptsächlich für ihren als warm und druckvoll charakterisierten Sound geschätzt. Auch der dafür mitverantwortliche Humbucker-Tonabnehmer, in seiner heute geläufigen Bauweise, wurde von Seth Lover bei Gibson entwickelt.
Anfang der 1960er Jahre erschien mit der Gibson SG eine weitere Solidbody E-Gitarre aus dem Hause Gibson. Zunächst als Nachfolger der Les Paul gedacht, wurde sie, auch dank Angus Young von AC/DC, zu einer weiteren Ikonen der Rock-Geschichte und ist die Grundlage für den Typ der Double Cut-Gitarre.
Mit der Flying V und der Explorer zeichnet sich Gibson für zwei Korpusformen verantwortlich, die zwar zum Zeitpunkt ihres Erscheinens, Ende der 1950er Jahre, ihrer Zeit viel zu weit voraus waren, aber im Laufe der Jahre ebenfalls Legendenstatus erreichten. Bis heute dienen sie auch als Grundlage für eine Vielzahl von Heavygitarren, beispielsweise von Herstellern wie Jackson oder ESP.
Der Gibson Custom Shop fertigt Auftragsarbeiten, hochwertige Einzelstücke und exakte Replikate berühmter Modelle und legendärer Jahrgänge ihrer Instrumente an. Oft werden diese auch einem künstlichen Alterungsprozess, genannt Relicing, unterzogen.
Fast genauso lange wie das Unternehmen existiert, werden auch Akustikgitarren produziert. So zählen die J-45, die Hummingbird, die L-00 und die SJ-200 zu den beliebtesten Westerngitarren der Welt und waren das Instrument der Wahl für Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley oder John Lennon.
Neben den bereits erwähnten Instrumenten könnt ihr bei uns natürlich auch die Plektren, Taschen und Koffer oder Merchandise aus dem Hause Gibson kaufen.
Besonders stolz sind wir, in unserer Frankfurter Filiale einen Gibson Flagship Store zu beheimaten. Dort findet ihr nicht nur eine große Auswahl und exklusive Modelle zum direkt Ausprobieren, sondern profitiert bei der Beratung zur perfekten Gitarre auch vom Fachwissen unserer von Gibson geschulten und zertifizierten Mitarbeiter.
