Gibson x Loog Guitars at Chicago Music Exchange!
Small hands. Big dreams. Legendary design reimagined.
Gibson has teamed up with Loog — makers of beginner-friendly guitars — to launch a line of three–string versions of classic Les Pauls and SGs. These instruments aren’t toys, but real guitars built with authentic components: poplar bodies, customized Gibson-style Dogear pickups, and finishes that pop — scaled down for ease, built up for inspiration.
Chicago Music Exchange is proud to be the exclusive independent retailer for Gibson x Loog Guitars — and the only brick-and-mortar store location where you can see, play, plug in, and shop these guitars in person.
Why Gibson x Loog Matters
Learning guitar should be thrilling, not frustrating. That’s why the Gibson x Loog models simplify things without cutting corners: three strings instead of six, simplified controls, short scale necks built for small hands, and bundled learning tools like a companion app, chord flashcards, and an activity book. Even better: they retain real-guitar tone thanks to custom hardware.
Whether you’re a parent hunting for the perfect first instrument — or you just want to jam with something playful and compact — these guitars deliver. They bridge the gap between learning and playing with style.
At Chicago Music Exchange, we’re all about tone, quality, and discovery. The Gibson x Loog collection belongs right next to our vintage axes — because inspiration starts early. Come see them in person (they’re too cute not to hold), try them out with an amp, and explore how these little powerhouses can spark big creativity.
Stop by our showroom, browse online, or chat with a Sales Specialist to learn which Gibson x Loog models are available! Start the next generation’s journey with legendary sound in tiny form — exclusively at the only independent retailer carrying the Gibson x Loog Collection.
