Orianthi offers sneak peek at her Gibson signature acoustic
Guitarist also announces new solo album, her first in seven years

Orianthi has long been associated with PRS electric guitars, but she recently dropped the news that she also has a new acoustic collaboration with Gibson in the works, writing on Instagram, “Couldn’t be more excited about my new signature @gibsonguitar acoustic.. will be available soon.”
From the looks of it, the new model, which is touted as having “first-of-its-kind engineering,” features custom appointments including a striking red finish and custom fingerboard, bridge and headstock inlays.
While we await the official launch of the guitar, Orianthi has also announced a new studio album, her first in seven years, as well as her debut offering with new label Frontiers Music SRL. The as-yet-untitled album is scheduled for release later in 2020.
