In this video, Gibson's Master Luthier and Product Development Manager Jim DeCola demonstrates Gibson's impressive use of CNC Machines to route control cavities in their Gibson USA guitars, providing for a more accurate and SAFER process. In this case we see a bed of Gibson SG Standard '61s receive their pickup and control cavity routes by the automated CNC machine before moving to hand finishing. What an incredible display of technology!

We also hear about the reason for gluing the set neck BEFORE routing the control cavities, unlike how it was done in the past.

There's also nothing like seeing a moving ceiling of beautiful Gibson USA guitars in progress!

This is an excellent example of modern technology advancing music instead of ruining it. This is amazing.

I really like that Gibson knows where the line is between robots and humans and what is best where ! And that none of it could be done without humans !!

Two things I "need", a 61 SG, and that CNC machine!

Absolutely Amazing! Does Mr. Betts's signature SG made this way?

First time I see CNC machines drilling guitars with the neck.

Tell Jim I’ll send him a new mask with better elastic straps if he’ll send me a Les Paul. 😷🤣

I don't think Mr Cola would lie to us but if you take his 42 years in the business and assume he started at age 18 he is at least 60 years old. He looks 40. Tops? Did I miss something?
