Summary |
Technical Information: From the 2002 Brunswick Billiards Gibson sell sheet: The Brunswick Gibson is reminiscent of that bygone era when developing a flair for the passing of time became an art. A classic blend of design, craftsmanship, and unpretentious elegance, this graceful table resonates with the natural beauty of wood. The "casual style" is based on rustic American northwest and European "cottage" styles of the 18th and 19th centuries. Defined by lightly stained non-exotic hardwoods or pine, and unpretentious simple functional design. With its warm, comfortable appeal, casual styles feature broad planks reminisent of cottage beams and joists with mechanical ornaments and few curves. DESIGN The Gibson is a classic blend of design, craftsmanship, and unpretentious elegance. Crafted from exotic Brazilian curubixa and presented in our Original Mahogany finish, this simple yet glamorous table features legs with bird’s-eye maple inlays and curved aprons with horizontal accent lines. Uniquely carved solid wood rail-corners enhance the natural beauty of this graceful table. With mother-of-pearl rail sights, the Gibson is available in eight- and nine-foot models. A matching wall cue rack is available. PERFORMANCE The Gibson table presents faithful design aesthetics in the context of supreme engineering and superb performance and playability-hallmarks of the Brunswick nameplate. The table features Brunswick’s exclusive SuperSpeed® Cushions for extremely accurate rebound angles, patented Cross Bolt construction, Brunswick-certified premium slate, and High Performance Nut Plate construction for lasting stability. As a result, balls play truer on Brunswick tables than on any other make. Backed by a Lifetime Ownership Warranty. 2000 Materials Specifications: Rails and aprons: Curubixa Legs: Pedestal style panel birdseye Base frame: Poplar or curubixa Sights: Pearlized High performance nut plates and dovetails. |
