It really comes to something when a brand as iconic as Gibson Guitars cant stay afloat!


Sad day indeed!
I am sure they will be resurrected but still not much bigger names than Gibson and Fender when it comes to guitars.

@jond  Yes, Taylor Swift is almost singlehandedly responsible for keeping the acoustic guitar business still relevant to the under-18 crowd!

Gibson reminds me of Harley or Margaritaville or similar brands created by and marketed to the over 50-crowd. Shite's changing; music's changing, but they still cater to an image.
