Slash (Guns n Roses, Velvet Revolver)
Excluding Les Paul, Slash has sold more Gibson guitars than anyone. I worked on a multitude of projects for Slash: worldwide campaigns, co-branded projects, one-off designs, tour support, event design, etc. The most successful campaign was the “Appetite for Destruction” Les Paul. Ironically, the original it was based on was not a Gibson, just an underground knockoff.
