For the MAGA guitarist who has everything

[tobijohn]

I love the irony of whoever is selling this. Patriotic American guitars, made in Indonesia.

Regardless of whether these bolt-neck LP style guitars are MIC or MII, and that comparable models from other sources go for $200 +/-$25, it does have Maga 45' Trumpbuckers...

I guess you could actually call this the latest "lawsuit" guitar....ha ha ha ha

I believe this series has the 45' Trumpbucker in the neck and 47' in the bridge.

FYI @sabasgr68, this is not a guitar on my "still missing" list. I don't gotta have one. Seriously.

Ah.. the used section at Guitar Center will become interesting again!

(out of the loop, is GC still a thing?)

FWIW, as of yesterday, all 1275 of the American Eagle electrics are sold out, including the signed $10,500 ones. Make of that what you will...

So, I guess they've complied with the cease and desist.

It hadn't occurred to me that they might have pulled them all because of the C&D and that's why they're listed as sold out. However, it's not Trump's style to shy away from legal confrontation. I wouldn't be surprised if he sued Gibson for something...

I just noticed that the Presidential series LPs are still available. I'd think that the C&D would have covered those as well as they seem to be the same as the American Eagle without the decal and fret inlays...

Being aware of the "fine line" mentioned before, and that I'm a foreign person who might not have the whole picture and, therefore, being at a risk of that what I'd wrongly think is a humorous or neutral comment might turn things in a wrong direction, I decided I'd just seat and watch here

@BatUtilityBelt I will only say that if I'd happen to find one of those in, let's say, a garbage bin because someone throw it away, in playable conditions, I would grab it and would make it my own in terms of color and the such, as I don´t really like guitars, or any instrument, actually, with stickers or artsy paints on them (I'm not in position to reject a guitar if I'm given the opportunity to have one )

Having said that, I'll return to my seat and keep on watching

(Sometimes I'd really like to have a good, nice political conversation among friends, even if it only helps me to expand my vocabulary).

@BatUtilityBelt @tobijohn Just a totally unrelated question that just came to me: do you both also write left-handed?

I both push away all the ravenous women that constantly plague me (think old Hai Karate ads from the 70s) and use a mouse with my right hand, that's it...

I write with either hand, but lefty is quicker and more legible.

Believe me, the vocabulary you'd gain during a political conversation in the USA these days would force your Abuela to wash your mouth out with soap

Oooops, no. I should have put complied in quotes in my post, meaning that since there are no more left to sell, they are in "compliance".

But the Presidential series is a pre-order, and they are still available...

Get ready for the Korea factory: keep costs low, use labor camps

My youtube feed is filling up with comments/videos on this guitar.
And it sounds like Gibson filed a cease and desist......
