Words that rhyme with Gibson
For the rhyme search, what matters about gibson is this: two-syllable, vowel on the short /ษ/, ending that rings out through a nasal. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: the perfect column comes up empty, family rhymes round out the strict column, the assonance count climbs into the thousands. Take the lyric role separately and it's a household-word. The slant pool is huge enough that you'll never need to repeat a rhyme.

Why gibson rhymes the way it does
Gibson is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the open /ษ/, then it lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 1, additive and subtractive together 42, assonance 12,555, and consonance 1. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With gibson, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
