Up close with a hoard of jaw-dropping super rare vintage models… Ray even has a Les Paul-shaped swimming pool!

The latest episode from Gibson TV's The Collection is a real gem; the company's Mark Agnesi visits longtime Paul McCartney and former Etta James guitarist Brian Ray at his home in Palm Springs to see an incredible collection.

A glorious Goldtop, beautiful '59 LP Burst and 335… a super rare Silver Fox Casino – Brian is a true guitar aficionado. He demos some of them too.
