Best Buy jams with Gibson in Canada

Best Buy Canada is now offering Gibson’s guitars and basses from Gibson USA and Epiphone, both online and in select stores across Canada. This launch adds to the ever-growing selection of more than 300 musical instruments available online at bestbuy.ca.

Best Buy also offers a full musical instruments section in six stores in Kelowna, Kitchener, Barrie, Brossard, Halifax and St. John's, complete with in-store certified music specialists to provide lessons and assist customers in choosing the right instrument.

"Musical instruments represent an exciting and growing category for us, and one that will certainly be popular during the upcoming holiday season," said Phil Johnston, director of musical instruments for Best Buy Canada. "Adding Gibson USA and Epiphone guitars and basses to our lineup lends considerable credibility to our musical instruments department. We're thrilled to be able to bring these exciting, innovative brands to our customers."

Anyone who purchases a Gibson or Epiphone instrument at any of the six specialized stores is entitled to a free, 30-minute lesson packed with tips and tricks to help musicians — and would-be musicians — get the most out of these premium instruments. Gibson guitars come with a lifetime limited warranty.
