Default New Addition to Music Room

Hi folks,

Just wanted to share a pic of the latest addition to my music room --- a Gibson Montana sales banner just acquired from a somewhat local (1-1/2 away) music store. Saw it rolled up in the corner of their Gibson acoustic case, inquired about buying it and it's now a nice part of my banner collection. More musical inspiration! Any thoughts on age ?

Would enjoy seeing what's on the wall in your music room/area!

Cheers!

I’ve been collecting merchandise for years. Here are a few items.

Huge Custom made Fender headstock light fixture.




Music store promo Korg tuner from a zillion years ago. Actually works pretty well.



Music store banner.



Another music store banner.



Martin dealer ice chest promo.

Thanks. I think I bought it off eBay about 20 years ago. Not sure how long it existed before that.

Looks great on the wall there, wguitar. I'd love to have one of those. Are they available somewhere or do you have to be a dealer to get one? Why would they sell it?

Hi George,

I have never seen one before so can't really speak to their general availability. My philosophy is that it never hurts to ask -- so I did.

Cheers!

OP: Love the Gibson banner.....AND the other ones as well. To those who've posted pics, all very cool spaces.
