The brand has also announced a new collaboration with guitar legend Jimmy Page, co-founder of one of the biggest bands of all time,\u00a0Led Zeppelin, who\u00a0leveraged his blues and folk inspirations to orchestrate the pioneering rock sound that became the signature of the band, and revolutionized rock across all of its future variations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
When he met with Gibson president and chief executive Cesar Gueikian, Page says: \u201che explained what the future of Gibson looked like, I knew I needed to be involved. There is a spirit in the place; after seeing the people working at the factories and getting a connection with them, I knew that picking up that Les Paul Custom and the Doubleneck all those years ago was certainly the right decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJimmy Page deserves a very important chapter in the history of Gibson,\u201d\u00a0agrees Gueikian. \u201cWe think of Jimmy as an ambassador emeritus of guitars and a music trailblazer in the birth and evolution of rock.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cIn many ways, Jimmy is responsible for the success,\u00a0continued innovation,\u00a0and evolution of post-golden-era Gibson. We are grateful\u00a0for\u00a0Jimmy\u2019s trust in the Gibson team, and we look forward to paying tribute to him by bringing this epic collaboration to life.\u201d\u00a0 Visit\u00a0Gibson Garage London\u00a0at\u00a061-62 Eastcastle St,\u00a0London, W1.<\/p>\n
