The Gibson Guitars of Pete Townshend

The Who’s Pete Townshend has played – and smashed – many different guitar brands over the years. But he had a ripe period when he played – and again smashed -  Gibsons. From the mid’’60s to mid-‘70s – for many The Who’s glory days – Townshend relied on a variety of Gibson electrics and acoustics. Here’s a brief rundown.

In The Who’s early days, Townshend’s stunt of smashing guitars onstage made him notorious. It was good theatre. Only problem? It was costing him more in guitars than the whole band were earning.

Townshend first started using Gibson semi’s circa 1966-’67: at first a borrowed ES-175, then ES-335s (345s and 355s). And before Jimmy Page made the Gibson SG EDS-1275 doubleneck famous (for live performances of “Stairway to Heaven”), Townshend was using a black EDS-1275 6/12 to play “Substitute” live.
