GIBSON U.S.A. ? REALLY ? UH, NOT !

That's my thought too. I wonder how often these things are checked and how. I mean, I find it hard to believe that once a year some men in black would turn up at your factory and demand to see your stuff. And the stamp has been there for a while...

It may have been grandfathered in. Or good old fashioned corruption and regulatory capture saved the day.

If you were handed two guitars, and one made in America and the other made in Asia, would you be able to tell them apart? If not, your reasons for loving American-made guitars are spurious.

I absolutely could tell...by the price! And if the import costs more, something is wrong!! By the way i own Gibson USA, Fender mex, and many imports....lately i like Schecters.
