What a gorgeous, glowing piece of craftsmanship that deserves no less than to be in gifted, masterful hands of Orianthi.

[@SebaRutini]

She is amazing... and that guitar is from beyond

[@terryterrell5267]

She seems like a truly sweet person.

[@BlueRidgeKat1]

Man she can play. Had the pleasure of getting to see her on stage in Knoxville TN once.

[@ralex3697]

She’s absolutely amazing

[@loganpass]

She's an incredibly skilled artist. This is the perfect place for this beautiful instrument!

[@robteaster2446]

Ssoooooooo very much talent in his heart, mind, voice, and hands. This lady is far, far too underrated.

[@stratostatic]

Some people are so lucky to have a friend like Bobby. Must of us ain't so lucky. And some of us don't even have friends..

[@hughbean6785]

Bobby you are a special person to do this to keep musicians Rockin with great instruments my hat is off to you sir ❤️

[@mrDCunningham]

She talks about Elvis using one for the 1968 comeback special then she plays one of the songs that he did with that guitar on that show. I love her.👍🏻😎

[@paulhewson4600]

Man I wanna meet Bobby!! I need a Friend like that!

[@pompa04]

Orianthi is not only a multitalanted musician she´s the sweetest person ever !!

[@vtwinaddicted5852]

I was 6 yrs old when that Elvis come back special was aired that Orianthi was talking about, hail yeah!!!

[@andybasic1761]

That guitar deserves to be in the hands of a great and appreciative artist like Orianthi!

[@FrisellFan01]

Being a huge Gibson Fan.....from very young around 1974 I was lucky enough to take possession of my Dad's L-5 and I only had it ....maybe a year and 1/2 but it was the start of my love for Gibson guitars ..later in life I worked in Music retail and I was able to work some guitar shows around the Midwest. Gaining knowledge along the way meeting a bunch of fine people and also a chance to play an endless supply of vintage guitars in that time. That Super 400 is quite the gem....I have played a few in my day.....and it was a joy.

[@waynedavis5137]

Bobby seems to be a true Renaissance patron of the arts man

[@jonmars9559]

Great to be in a position to connect a great instrument with a great artist. A guitar is just a thing without someone playing it. Then it comes to life.

[@tyronejoihnson7046]

Bobby is a special human blessing to our planet!

[@VonBluesman]

Bobby, Bobby, living proof there are still great loving, kind, compassionate, people in the world. Congratulations to both of you and I wish you all the best in life.

[@hughbean6785]

Love that so happy for you Orianthi that is a classic ❤️🎸

[@ganaorganador]

Well,... she deserves it. What a great gesture of generosity, Bobby. Ultrakudos for that!!

[@latonyahemingway3752]

Beautiful guitar!! Great player!! Well done Bobby!!

[@donaldholman9070]

Orianthi is amazing! Great musician.

[@001USA001]

Awesome. Well done Bobby! Great guitar and that playing! Wow!

[@likeakite]

What a lovely thing to do....there are some wonderful people in the world....nice one Bobby !

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

Damn, I always forget how talented she really is. Natural talent combined with hard work is always a winner

[@garykeenan3724]

Orianthia such a beautiful lady, awesome guitarist; one of my favorites!!!

[@scottakam]

Pretty cool gift! Good to see cool guitars going to people that can and will actually play them.

[@joemusic2882]

What a great sounding guitar

[@porkbelly0713]

I just saw her play two days ago in a vid with Billy F Gibbons and Kenny Greenburg a Nashville studio guy, they were great together. I had no idea she could play blues like this, she is super talented

[@lailaphelan6319]

That guitar is the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen.

[@princequestly2218]

What an amazing gesture, some people are just class acts with kind hearts. She’s gonna make some beautiful music on it I’m sure. It’s a such a beauty.

[@bunkerman99]

What a lovely gesture. Very kind and yes she can really play.

[@railcar123]

A truly spectacular instrument.

[@realtalk5931]

That thing has some amazing tones wow

[@TheChicagoTodd]

She's fabulous!

[@GEAUXFRUGAL]

That's a beautiful thanks Bobby .

[@leechap3]

Amazing sound to that axe!

[@mademepickaname]

Incredible tone

[@JohnOhkumaThiel]

Hearing her amazing playing, first thought was I’ll never be that good. And then I recalled the same feeling, pretty much all the time, when I’m doing lessons on TrueFire with some absolute legend, and the material is way over my head; I’m thinking this is where I plateau and just stay there for the rest of my guitar playing life. And then I practice, a lot, every day, and in two weeks it’s simple, even boring. It becomes something I do as I warm up or while noodling. I modify and mess with it until it’s my own. Then I go to the next lesson and it starts all over again with thinking, “This is impossible. I’ll never be able to do that.”

[@mariorabottini5687]

A lovely present for a truly lovely humble lady! You rock Orianthi! From Melbourne Australia!

[@C509NorthernTerritory]

Adelaide? Could be wrong

[@barryriddle883]

Definitely Adelaide, South Australia. Nice she still sounds like an Aussie.

[@darylclifford]

@@barryriddle883Glad you noticed too! My son at age 16 started a Sydney band in 2011 called 5 Seconds of Summer (aka 5SOS) with mates from school (one was only 15). They now live in LA and a couple of them sound more American then actual Americans!! When I hear a forced accent going from bogan type Aussie to complete Yankee it makes me cringe. Thank god my son sounds mostly neutral. He says you have to adopt a part accent to be understood, which Orianthi seems to have done also.

[@f1s2hg3]

Norm that very very special and I love that true story of gifting music that’s good love!

[@papadelta1791]

So very cool.....thanks. Nothing like clean through a proper Fender amp

[@gaveller]

Beautiful guitar!

[@briansmythe3219]

Now thats a guitar ,Unreal I loved the preformace too verry cool

[@tortillasarenotbiceps7622]

She's amazing.

[@1000foxtrot]

One of the best Guitars Gibson ever made .... and she can use it to the limits of what this guitar can sound like .... Congrats ....

[@StephenOshea]

im glad to see that Orianthi is playing and enjoying such a great guitar . great video

[@palidiciovermingagurainia1760]

great person too…life of fame and fortune isn’t all success, parties and shows- l think if things happed differently she would be a household name

[@robertrohrs9195]

Great talent right there.

[@hoffy1003]

When I was at Norm's 3 years ago, I was looking for that very guitar.

[@BrianOboylemusic]

That’s why I play guitar because there are people that are just so good hearted and I like Yep Oriani needs that gutter that Mike Lambo needs a guitar get it for him like it’s a great culture and I’m really privileged to be a part of it …play in great health ORI

[@michaelcrowhorse-chavez6582]

Ori is a Phenom Always Has been before MJ discovered here. Love here always Will.

[@jreagle58]

The guitar is HUGE in her hands!

[@jonmaclennan]

Amazing! 🤘🎸

[@joezambrano9651]

Beautiful guitar great playing Ori great camera work jen

[@boss123400]

[@barrysoetoro8452]

[@altonwilliams7117]

Wow! She went there🎵 I can’t believe my ears. That’s way before her time. She’s got good taste in music. 🎵

[@jamesmoon5632]

She is an amazing guitarist

[@jomamma1750]

Ori, write a song on that ax for Bobby. That would be a pretty cool thank you.

[@bernadetteapps9303]

Orianthi is a beautiful, humble & talented woman.

[@OakLawnSpeedShop]

Definitely the complete package. And that accent.....WOW

[@monaural2.988]

If she loves Elvis’ ‘68 Comeback, that guitar is in loving hands with her. I hope she’ll explore some 50s Rockabilly styles in the future. She already has the skill.

[@RosarioCaliColombia]

wonderful

[@LarreeHollywood]

Wow. That is one of the coolest guitars on the planet! I saw Robben Ford play one of those with Jimmy Witherspoon at the Ash Grove many, many years ago! I can't wait to hear what Orianthi does with it! Spectacular! Bobby is one rockin' fan! :)

[@juniorthornton3819]

Cost more than most people make in a life time I have es335 100.000

[@ViaAvione]

Beautiful Guitar !!! Cheers, :D London

[@pgroove163]

love those jazz boxes...all of em'..

[@StevenRosenberg]

There are a lot of different sounds in a Super 400, that's for sure. She's a great player.

[@J_Beazy223]

Ori is Dynamite! gotta be my favorite female blues player. This is such a great channel and such great people at NRG! Bobby knows how to get to a womans heart. I can't believe he bought that guitar for her before I could. How can a guy top that? Thats better than diamonds!

[@GerhardDaghoul]

❤ such a shredder! ❤

[@Popsaircraftdetail]

Awesome

[@yourbuddygabe3735]

I heard her absolutely SHRED Voodoo Chile on stage. I had the pleasure of driving her to the airport in Vegas several years ago. She didn't say a word to me, but man....it's hard to express just how good she smelled.

[@randyfrieberg1706]

Don't know who Bobby is but ... u rock buddy .... thnk u for being so cool ....

[@wildcolonialman]

Fabulous.

[@fireside007]

Smoke’n!! . . . YOU ~ ROCK ! !

[@stevenfrederick2315]

Awesome! There's no Guitar in the World like a "Gibson Classic ES400 or any Gibson Guitar, Period, The Gibson Les Paul"! Steve, Man to me the Gibson Classic ES 400 Guitar is the Ultimate of all! Praise God, it's the only Guitar for Jazz or the Early Country & Rock n Roll sound!

[@ArgentAbendAzure]

Lovely to see someone with that generosity. Orianthi is a phenomenal artist and comes across as a genuinely lovely person. Nobody more deserving! I'd say that guitar has landed on it's feet!

*_Ori is a preternaturally gifted guitarist - originally aussie I believe, such a shame she's not better known here, Downunder ...come back & tour awhile Ori - bring that supersized 400 with you!!_*

[@georgezamora1490]

Bobby, I have always wanted a '65 hummingbird
