Glenn is working and reuniting with Gibson guitars after many years.
Glenn tells us: “It was all about the Gibson 335 whilst in Trapeze. The Medusa album was written with this instrument, in the pic I am playin’ the Epiphone Elitist and will be playin’ it on the Rock’n’Roll Fantasy Camp tour….they have sent me a Cherry Red Gibson 335…..You Are The Music…was written on a ’71 Gibson Les Paul, so it should be obvious to everyone that I am goin’ “home” to the sound that is appropriate for me….I am playin’ more guitar now than ever…and I am honored to part of the Gibson family”.
You can read more on the Epiphone Elitist and see the pic he refers to, here:

For all of you who are planning to attend one of the upcoming USA based, ROCK’N’ROLL FANTASY CAMP, shows that will be taking place during the month of August, all across the country, we wanted to give you a heads up.
Get there early! The all-star musicians including Glenn will be onstage from 6:00PM until around 8:00PM, with their 1-day Camp aspiring musicians that they will have counseled during the same day. The headliners of KINGS X and EXTREME will then begin around 8:30PM.
The exception to this, are the shows taking place in NASHVILLE (August 11th) and LAS VEGAS (August 23rd) when the ROCK’N’ROLL FANTASY CAMP “All Star Jam” band will be headlining and of course that will include Glenn along with all the other star musicians.
Having said that, Glenn will be making a concerted effort to say “Hi” to as many fans as he can, so if you spot him, don’t be shy and be sure and say “Hi” yourself!
GLENN will be the featured artist on ROCKLINE on WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19TH at 11:30PM EDT / 8:30PM PDT.
GLENN will perform an exclusive “plugged-in” set on the nationally syndicated radio show. Fans can talk live with GLENN by calling 800-344-ROCK (7625).
