I am hoping that Donald Trump will do something about these borders. Law enforcement around here is a joke! It's not the police because they try but the court system just keeps releasing the bad guys and they keep committing crimes. Of course, the lawyers are laughing all the way to their banks and smiling all the way back home.
Here in Califonia we had an outrageous law that defined theft valued at less than $950 to be a misdemeanor, a crime on the level with Jay Walking. People could rob stores for merchandise valued at less than $950, forge checks for less than $950, etc. A change to this law finally got on the last ballot. Exactly where we stand now I am not certain.
One has P90s and the other has humbuckers. There will most definitely be a difference in sound for that reason alone.
Sure, to trained ears. Or studio musicians. BUT, for a regular dude seeing a Gibson for THAT price! I bet they sell like hotcakes.
Listening again, I like the sound of the fake Les Paul a little better. It's mellower because of the P90s.Sure, to trained ears. Or studio musicians. BUT, for a regular dude seeing a Gibson for THAT price! I bet they sell like hotcakes.
Infringement is not acceptable, but:Funny because trump himself is selling fake, Chinese made Gibson ("Chibson") Les Paul copies with some American eagle decal slapped on, the MAGA slogan on the fretboard and his autograph for something like $10,000 each.
That news report also said that Gibson had no comment on the matter.
Yeah, a couple of days ago I started a thread about the c&d letter in another forum I post on.

Well they have a point. I'm a little reluctant to accept monopoly positions out of hand though.
Definitely!! I am a guitar player, for 50 years now. I have seen the knock offs improve their playability through the years. The last knock offs I tried were probably 20 years ago. Then, you could find one for a third of a pop brand that played about the same. You are looking for good action all the way up the neck. Any buzzing frets, octave accuracy, . They will all be slightly inferior to the brand names, BUT they fill a larger market than those who can afford the best. With modern recording devices, and guitar gadgets, you also can create some very special sounding guitar stuff. Everyone is a music producer now, if that's their thing.
Yep, unless you're rich, you need to know how to do your own basic guitar work such as fret leveling and setups to make the guitar easy to play. And that applies to brand names as well as cheap copies.Definitely!! I am a guitar player, for 50 years now. I have seen the knock offs improve their playability through the years.
