I can understand not caring for Gibson guitars, but disliking them with a passion, really?

It’s interesting about the Gibson raid. I have no idea if they violated the law or not. No doubt, they’ll get their day in court. Ex Post Facto prosecutions may be unconstitutional, but the question is whether Gibson continued to import the woods after the relevant laws went into effect. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how it all plays out.

I know very little about music, and couldn’t play a note on a guitar if my life depended on it. That being said, this is dynamite stuff with a definite 80’s feel. I can offer no higher praise !

What I enjoy about Sean’s playing is you can hear his influences. You can hear the classical aspects, as well as Steve Howe or even Smith & Murray from Iron Maiden.

Either way, hes phenomenal and a very lucky man.

I guess that the feds have all their other problems solved, going after Gibson like they are. Personally, I have one of the original ’58 Explorers and like it very much, no so with their recent production. You would think that they would spend their resources on better things though. What gets me is the inference that if the fretboards were made offshore that Gibson’s problems would “go away”. The gov needs to get their priorities in order, and quit trying to put US manufacturers out of business. On another note, I have Sean’s CD, and find him to wield a very credible axe, IMHO.

[Thanks MJ; Sean will be pleased.]
