Gibson Guitar Of The Week | |
---|---|
![]() The 2007 Reverse Flying V in Trans Amber, Guitar Of The Week #29 | |
Manufacturer | Gibson |
Period | 2007 |
In 2007, Gibson did a series of limited editions called the Guitar Of The Week, also known as GOTW. A new limited run of 400 guitars was presented every week on Tuesdays. The runs started on January 22nd with an SG Supreme Bass and finished on December 18th with a reissue of an RD Standard. The listing contained 22 Les Pauls, 13 SGs, 5 Explorers, 3 Flying Vs, 3 Firebirds, and 1 RD for a total of 47 unique series. [1] Note that week 45 was skipped. It is often mentioned that #45 was pulled and turned into the Joan Jett signature model Gibson Melody Maker, but Gibson has not confirmed this. [2]
These limited editions brought a lot of different models on the market, with different sets of features that were not common at this time. In some cases, like the Week 33, the old Gibson logo on the headstock can confuse and make you think the guitar is fake. [3] It is easy to confuse a Guitar Of The Week model with different models if they are not looked with an experienced eye, like the Week #28 and another Ebony Black Classic or the Week #42 and the Ace Frehley signature model.

The Week 2 - Les Paul Classic Antique, released on January 29th, 2007, is a Les Paul Classic Antique, including a figured maple top and a pair of Gibson's '57 Classic humbuckers—with a special Fireburst finish.
It is another Les Paul Classic Antique. This guitar has a unique finish, made and signed by Tom Morgan. The finishing is sometimes called Tom Morgan Lava. The back is painted black.
For Week 14, The Les Paul Classic Antique is updated with unique H-90 pickups and an Iced Tea Sunburst finish on a figured maple top. Gibson's H-90 stacked double coil pickup results from a close collaboration with Billie Joe Armstrong. It offers the snarl and punch of a classic, vintage P-90, but with none of the 60-cycle hum that usually plagues traditional single coil pickups. [4]
The Week 27's Les Paul Classic Antique continues Gibson's Classic line with vintage touches. The mahogany top is finished in Faded Cherry. The pickups are '57 Classic PAF humbuckers.
Week 28 is a Les Paul Classic Custom drawing on the legendary Black Beauty Les Pauls. It comes with P-90 pickups, antique ebony, a single-bound body, gold hardware, and a slim 60s-style taper neck. Unlike a Black Beauty, a Gibson Les Paul Custom, the Week 28 doesn't have the binding on the back of the body or the diamond in the headstock. [5]
This Les Paul Classic is unique because of its Antique Vintage Sunburst finish and mahogany top. [3]
The Week 39 is a Les Paul Classic Custom. Its originality comes from a pristine Antique White finish, Custom—gold hardware, an ebony fingerboard, white binding and inlays, and two covered '57 Classics.
The Week 42 is a Les Paul Classic Custom with a trio of cream Dimarzio Super Distortion pickups. The finish is a Heritage Cherry Sunburst. The model is near the Les Paul Custom Ace Frehley signature. The differences between the two models are in the headstock and the back of the body. The headstock of this model has the crown instead of the artist's face. The back doesn't have the binding. The neck inlay of the signature model has a unique thunderbolt shape.
Like Week 28, Week 46 is a close copy of a Gibson Les Paul Custom, but as a Les Paul Classic Custom. Like Week 42, it comes with three pickups but with gold hardware. It can be differentiated from the custom by the headstock with a crown instead of a diamond and the back of the body without binding and no block inlays.
