Tennessee road trip / gibson plant tour
Greetings everyone!
My wife and I are planning a trip through Tennessee and I want to incorporate a little bit of guitar related fun stuff. Questions - We would like to do the Gibson factory tour. Does Gibson manufacture in Nashville AND Memphis? It appears that Memphis is the main factory and Nashville is showroom / store? What else do ya'll recommend as must-do fun excursions in Nashville or Memphis? Guitar stores, good restaurants, clubs, etc. I know a lot of you have been down that way and I appreciate any advice.

I know that Les Pauls are made at the Nashville site and I believe that the hollowbody's are made at the Memphis plant. Other than that I'm not sure.

Fun excursions in Nashville? Go to Knoxville and the Great Smoky Mountains. It's a wee bit east of there...

If you're going to Nashville, even if you're not staying there, you should check out the Opryland Hotel. It connects to the mall and the Grand Ole Opry. Downtown, check out Tootsie's, The Country Music Hall of Fame, and the Wild Horse Saloon. Gruhn's has recently relocated, but also a great stop for guitar players.
