[quote:Anonymous Coward 910807:MV8xNjEwNTgzXzI2NjA4NDQ4XzNEMzRBOTgw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1520511:MV8xNjEwNTgzXzI2NjA4MzUyX0MxQjU2NzVB] And look, I didnt mean any disrespect or deserve it, But being one of only 34 people on this planet who directly report to Henry I felt I had some authority here. I'm not trying to prove who pisses further. [quote:Anonymous Coward 1520511:MV8xNjEwNTgzXzI2NjA4MjE4XzQ0Q0UyMTc3] LOL- Point well taken. In fact I can help in the seeking of truth. Henry himself said this was political. Many people who work with me are dems but MANY are Repubs. Still few are awake even at my Level (starts with a C). This is much more about the DOJ than Gibson. I don't know how HJ voted but i know he is a fan of Obama and I have been there when he talked to Oprah via cell phone. Didn't sound 'republican' to me.

There are discussions going on now for more just like there are over 17 members of the Gibson family of Brands. This is the most enlightening post I have seen on GLP in 3 years of membership. Because it is the first one that i know more about than 99.9% of people here.

[/quote] Last I heard, Gibson was owned by TC Electronics ( From Denmark ?) Who is outsourcing Who ? :hf: Fender- Well ???? [/quote] Plants raided in Memphis and Nashville. Read the press release. [/quote] Yes, I have Gibson appears to be owned by a overseas company- TC Electronics ! The vast majority of instruments are made in the USA ! The buy-out happened sometime 2008 ?, at least that is when there was a major price increase (still continues :wall:) and I was made aware ! I am the proud owner of 2 custom shop instruments- I feel safe to say that I am in the know ? The parent company of Gibson Guitars is "over seas" :hf: [/quote] [/quote] This isn't a pissing contest about guitar manufacturing trivia. It's expressing abhorrence at the overreach of the doj and the rise of the police state. I saw this presser on the website and brought it here. If you don't like this info inclosed, send a request to Gibson to unfuck themselves. Not all of us have the misfortune of having to live in Nashville; but still,congrats on your Birdseye view of the incident. We have to use what we're given to discern what happened, but if you can contribute to the truth - please do. [/quote] [/quote] [/quote] My bad. That may have read worse than it was meant. I'm just saying that all we have is the press release and the subsequent hi notes from the msm. If you know the real skinny, hook us up man! [/quote]

....“The Federal Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. has suggested that the use of wood from India that is not finished by Indian workers is illegal, not because of U.S. law, but because it is the Justice Department’s interpretation of a law in India. (If the same wood from the same tree was finished by Indian workers, the material would be legal.) This action was taken without the support and consent of the government in India.” ...
