I haven't seen any mention of this and I was wondering what some of you might think of this. Gibson guitars was raided by the federal government AGAIN. It's one thing to have proof of a banned wood violation, but quite another to close down a place and continually drag out the legal process waiting for proof.
This big worry for a lot of musicians, apparently, is that they may not have proof that their guitars were purchased before the wood was banned. So they may not be able to use them or risk having them confiscated.
Below are links to the articles and a video of the Gibson CEO's press conference.
