Gibson and Slash have announced the release of the first-ever Slash Collection, which will feature multiple acoustic and electric guitars. The collection will officially premiere at the Gibson experience space during Winter NAMM 2020 in Anaheim, California from January 15th through the 19th.

Slash and Gibson’s luthiers worked in close collaboration on the collection at Gibson’s headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee. The line features four Les Paul Standard electric guitars and two J-45 Standard acoustic guitars.

Exclusive to the collection are Slash’s “Scully” signature drawing on the back of the headstock, Slash’s signature on the truss rod cover, a blank truss rod cover in the case, Slash’s new Ernie Ball strings, and four Slash Jim Dunlop Tortex picks. The Les Paul Standard is available in November Burst, Vermillion Burst, Appetite Burst and Anaconda Burst, while the J-45 Standard is available in the first two.
