Original Acoustic Instruments
Have you seen the new Original Acoustic Instruments (OAI) site? There are the instruments that are the foundations of Gibson Musical Instruments with modern jewels recreated to embody the qualities of the first instruments Orville Gibson produced in Kalamazoo, MI, and his equally creative successors such as Lloyd Loar pioneered. Mandolins, banjos, and dobros are all pain-stakingly hand-crafted from the finest maple, brass, ivory, and mahogany by contemporary luthiers who embrace Orville's passion for quality and innovation.
