As part of Gibson's storied tenure with the NAMM Show, the Gibson Custom Shop proudly presents the Gibson Custom Shop 1955 NAMM Show Commemorative Edition Les Paul. The National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) is a non-profit global trade association dedicated to the music products industry. Annually, their trade shows are marked as major events in the industry with industry giants and up-and-comer brands alike congregating in celebration of music products. This special release from Gibson Custom Shop pays tribute to a limited series of Les Pauls produced for the 1955 NAMM Show in Chicago, Illinois. Those originals, now highly coveted by collectors with only a few of them with actual whereabouts known today, earn a revitalized status through this Gibson Custom Shop series.

Today's Gibson Custom Shop 1955 NAMM Show Commemorative Edition Les Paul is made up of a series of guitars with seventy pieces produced in each of the five colors. A truly limited run, these guitars are produced to commemorate Gibson's original Les Paul series from the NAMM Show from seventy years prior. Classic '50s-style custom metallic nitrocellulose lacquer car finishes replicated by Gibson for the first time ever and period-accurate specifications denote these models as authentic revivals of Gibson's original limited NAMM series.

Gibson Custom's 1955 NAMM Les Paul starts out with a one-piece lightweight mahogany body with a two-piece plain maple cap. This top, fitted with hide glue, is a quality specification to deliver on tonal brightness and concision. One-ply cream royalite binding wraps the top for a fine accent. From here, the one-piece solid mahogany neck comes in designed with a long neck tenon and a Chunky D-Shape profile. Playing with a smooth and classic feel in hand, this neck fits perfectly alongside an Indian rosewood fingerboard with twenty-two historic narrow/tall frets. The fingerboard's twelve-inch radius and aged cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays tie it all together for an impressive look and feel.

For this Custom's voice, Gibson loaded in two cream-covered Custom Shop P-90 Soapbar single-coils. These P-90s are handwired with 500k CTS potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, resulting in rich tonality and a colorful spectrum of sounds to mix through. Authenticity to the original 1955 series becomes apparent with a series of smaller considerations. For one, the headstock features period-correct "low logo" holly headstock veneer. Alongside, the headstock is paired with a nylon nut, a set of Kluson single-line tuners and features a historical 1955 limited run serial number. The guitar is treated to a Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment which simulates light play wear along with lightly aged hardware. A No-Wire ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece lands on this model, replicating their first appearance from Gibson's original 1955 NAMM Les Pauls. Finally, this special release travels with a brown/pink Lifton five-latch case.

In commemoration of the NAMM Show and all it does for the musical instrument industry, Gibson Custom Shop tips its hat with a truly special series. See you at NAMM!

Refunded my purchase price
I purchased the "TESmart" 2 computer KVM Switch. I always get the added warranty these day for electronics and I am glad I did. It has now been 3 years and the unit has stopped working correctly. It would switch between computers but the mouse and keyboard stopped working for one of the computers. I'm not sure exactly which component stopped working because the keyboard and mouse worked fine for the other computer. I did plugged the mouse and keyboard directly to the computer in question and they worked fine. I believe the "push threw" stopped for my W11 computer, meanwhile, the W7 computer keeps trucking on. I say all that to say this, it's worth paying a few dollars more to get that little bit of extra security on the electronics these days. Unfortunately the prices have gone up on the KVM switches, at least the ones worth buying so I am in search of a new one now. ASURION was easy to work with. It wasn't that much of a hassle. The slight glitch I experienced was their automatic system didn't register my claim correctly. Only mistake I made was making the claim over a weekend. I would say if you make a claim do it during the normal business hours. I was able to chat with an agent during working hours and they were able to remedy the issue quickly. I did have to ship the KVM switch and its components to Asurion but they paid for shipping and once I was able to package and ship the unit back, Asurion refunded my purchase price completely with an Amazon Gift Card. So, all in all, it's all good!

Knowledgeable and helpful
I purchased a new Sony TV and was having a lot of trouble coordinating the settings. After struggling for 1.5 days, I gave up and called the number for Asurion. There was a reasonable wait while I found the "right" tech person, but it was worthwhile. He was knowledgeable and patient. He gave me confidence and we worked together to solve all my issues. At the end he became pressuring, wanted me to buy a monthly gig with them.
