“I am proud of the progress we have made across all of our Brands and the response from artists, dealers, and fans has been amazing,” says Gueikian. “The challenge is to keep this momentum going, so in my new role I will continue to focus on balancing our iconic past and building our innovative future. I am excited about this opportunity and the team is ready to rock.”

“Our future success is directly related to the strength of our team and we have built an amazing team all aligned around our vision, mission, and priorities for Gibson Brands,” says Curleigh.

The company also announced the addition of the MESA/Boogie brand to its portfolio, the launch of the Gibson App, and the opening of the Custom Shop Murphy Lab. The current Brand portfolio at Gibson Brands includes Gibson, Epiphone, Kramer, KRK, MESA/Boogie, and Steinberger.
