Frequently Asked General Question

In our constant effort to stand by our consumers, protect them, and bring them the finest products in the world, Gibson takes a firm and aggressive stance against all makers of counterfeit guitars and their distribution channels.

If you suspect a guitar advertised on a non-Gibson website is counterfeit you can use our counterfeit reporting form to submit the URL along with your comments for our team to review.

If a guitar is being sold for a fraction of what it would typically sell for, it is likely not a real Gibson guitar. The best way for consumers to protect themselves against fraud is to purchase your Gibson guitar from an authorized dealer.
