webe123 Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 This website is pretty funny! http://www.givson.com/home.html Check out their "products" page!! I think I was told it was done by a student for his web design project at school. By the way....Givson is supposed to be a REAL GUITAR COMPANY! Someone on the gear page said they were made in India, that was where they saw some in a music store. (of course that same person said he walked out of the store laughing!) I was wondering if they had any les paul knockoffs....but all I could find was one on page 3 of the "products" section. (the only working section on the site) It is called the "BLACK DIAMOND"......yeah...right! It kinda looks like a les paul body, though twice as huge with a fender neck attached to it! http://www.givson.com/products3.htm Talk about some crappy looking guitars! I guess their slogan should be: GIVSON: ONLY A GIVSON.... ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH! (he!he!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dak Lander Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 They are a real guitar. I saw one acoustic guitar in a pawnshop with a Givson label & logo and it acutally seemed like a decent guitar. I think it was made in India. Now, that's not to say someone with a real great sense of humor didn't take some other no-name guitar and put the Givson logo on it and the label inside but, why? Now your post???

Now your post???Well the one you saw may have been a real givson guitar! They DO make those! And yes, someone on the gear page said they saw them in a music store in India! I think this site was done as a school project, I don't think it is the companies real website....or if they even HAVE a website! As far as what they PLAY like?? Couldn't tell ya! Don't think I would want to...... on some of those models though! I just thought it was kinda humorus the way they spelled Givson like the Gibson logo! And I still say: "Only a Givson.....Isn't good enough"!! (HE! HE!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
