Live from the Gibson Room at the 2013 Winter NAMM Convention we bring you Mike Voltz, the man behind the new division of Gibson Guitars -- Gibson Memphis! In this video Mike takes Greg Koch through the new models coming out of Memphis, and together the two talk about what we can expect this year from Gibson Guitars! Site: Facebook: ~ Mike Voltz ~ Mike Voltz--a name synonymous with Chet Atkins. Currently a Product Manager for the Gibson Custom Shop Memphis Division, Mike has been in the guitar manufacturing business for a good many years. Having worked side by side with Chet for many years Mike was the creative director behind all of the Chet Atkins guitars that spawned from the Gibson factory. As time wore on, Mike's passion and knowledge for the art of building only grew. Now he can be found behind the creative team building the gorgeous new ES-330 reissue guitars! ~ Greg Koch ~ Hailing from the frigid wasteland of northern Wisconsin comes a beast the likes of which the world has never known. Greg Koch, a beast of both persona and guitar-mastery, couples his sickeningly magnetic personality with the guitar to create a style of playing that is both completely unique and deplorable at the same time. As a huge fan of the legendary Big Jim Hendricks Greg has taken all that is good and righteous about blues guitar and warped it into a ridiculously fantastic amalgamation of melodic defilement and mind-blowing creativity. Over the years Greg has shared the stage with everyone from Joe Bonamassa to Les Paul himself, never relenting, never ceasing to bring the ruckus.
