As many of you should know, since refloating the company, Gibson has started a very aggressive campain against all the companies that has been selling guitars with what they, Gibson, consider are they trademark body shapes.
The face of that campain is no other than former manager of world-famous Norman's Rare Guitars shop, Mark Agnesi, he's now their PR head.You may remember him from his funny/ironic guitar demos in Youtube.
Most of the controversy came from the infamous "Play Authentic" video that Gibson published and then deleted:
Gibson Threatens Guitar Builders in Controversial Video, Takes It Down After Public Outcry
Info on the sue against Dean:
Gibson sues Dean Guitars, according to reports | MusicRadar
And this is hot from the oven, EU courts dismissed Gibson's trademark claim on V shaped guitars, it mentions Framus&Warwick:
Gibson's Flying V Body Shape Trademark Appeal Dismissed in EU Court
Well , IMO, Agnesi and Gibson are in a power trip making enemies faster than good guitars.
What are your thoughts?
