Win a Gibson 50th Anniversary Firebird Guitar

Gibson 50th Anniversary Firebird Guitar
When it was introduced in 1963, the Gibson Firebird was so ahead of its time that few people wanted one, leading to its discontinuation in 1965. Lucky for guitarists everywhere, once rock ‘n’ roll style caught up to this guitar, the Firebird was brought back.

Now, 50 years later, Gibson is celebrating this once-radical guitar with a 50th Anniversary model. This commemorative axe is pimped out with a Bullion Gold nitrocellulose finish, gold hardware, and a black pickguard hot-stamped in gold with “50th Anniversary 1963-2013” and the traditional Firebird phoenix, and now you have a chance to win one from Premier Guitar.

Win a Jackson USA Select Soloist Electric Guitar

Jackson USA Soloist Select
Jackson wants to get to know its customers. They want you to tell them which social networks you frequent, if you enjoy extreme sports, and how good of a guitarist you are. You’ll find these questions and more in their 2013 survey, which helps the company develop new products and marketing strategies.

And they also want to hook one survey respondent up with a SICK guitar, one of the most expensive in the Jackson line. Complete the survey and you’ll be entered to win a USA Select Soloist guitar. This is their top US-made production guitar and sells for over $3,000.

Win a Guild D-140CE Acoustic Guitar

Guild D140CE Guitar Giveaway
Working in a guitar shop in high school, I really fell in love with Guild acoustic guitars, and always hoped I’d own one some day. Then I got a Martin, so the dream has been shelved, but I still think Guild makes great guitars!

Today, their GAD series is not only a great sounding group of guitars, but very affordable! And now, you have a chance to win a GAD series acoustic, directly from Guild.

Win a Fairfield Barbershop Overdrive Pedal

Fairfield Barbershop Overdrive Pedal
The first line of the product blurb for the Fairfield Babrbershop Overdrive pedal is “Have you ever sat in a barber’s chair wishing your tone was as slick as your freshly shaved upper lip?” I have to be honest, I have never ever had that thought, and I got my hair cut this morning. However, I see their point. I do enjoy a clear, slick tone. I also enjoy a pedal maker who says “Screw the hand-painted enclosures. Let the tone stand on its own!”

Jokes aside, check out the video below. This pedal, which sells for $175, sounds great! And the good people at Chicago Music Exchange are currently giving away one Fairfield Barbershop Overdrive pedal.
