First Craig, Now Memphis
Gibson is set to sell its Downtown Memphis factory after 18 years. According to Memphis Daily News, the guitar company is putting its current factory on the market and seeking to relocate to a smaller premises in the area. The company hopes to stay in the current facility for another 18 to 24 months while a new location is found. Presumably it’s hoped that the sale will go some way to paying off Gibson’s debt, which reportedly approached $520 million in August. More at https://www.memphisdailyn...-looking-for-new-home/

Actually that story has been floated multiple times for at least the last 6 months.
I doubt they will get a mere fraction of the $520M debt that factor.

I'm surprised they still want to be located in the USA at all, after how the federal government has treated them in the past.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

A lot of the stuff they sell brings in more money if it's stamped "Made in the USA." Also, maybe they like the new government better than the previous one.
