Time running out for Gibson

There is a news article out there it says Gibson is in financial trouble. We all should have known it was going to go bad when Gibson came out with studio monitors that had a guitar finish. I almost forgot about the microphones that look like giant bees. Funny when you think about it...

    Bankruptcy may be the best thing for Gibson. Force Henry out and regroup to their core business. They seem to have lost their way as to producing guitars that their customers want to buy.

    Not all is lost however, I'm loving my new LP Traditional/ Ice Tea. Excellent build quality and playability. Better than any of the 5 I've owned since 1981.
