Epiphone is much better than Gibson by a country mile. The 2010 model Epiphone G400. Standard 62 Sg and the 2011 Epiphone limited edition 50th anniversary 1961 Sg reissues are two perfect examples of Epiphones being a better guitars than Gibsons. Gibson hasn't made a better guitar than their sister company Epiphone since 2008. Gibson is finished.
We don't need Gibson anyways we have today the great Epiphone guitars that are Gibson every equal and better! Epiphones only falt there way underpriced for the top professional quality they delivery today!
He says almost all guitars use rosewood or ebony.....not true, five guitars on the wall in front of me, maple fingerboards, 3 with rosewood, none with ebony. Gibson uses rosewood on almost every model, and ebony on a handful. It does effect the sound, I happen to prefer the tone of maple over rosewood, but the rosewood on 3 of my guitars is probably from India, or 1 of them might be Bolivian rosewood. Point is he's talking to non-musicians telling them "almost all guitars use ebony or rosewood".
Henry J is a "Harvard Boy" and knows "Spin"..True..He has donated to good causes, but that is about PR..All companies do this..He would like to rally everyone for support and have you believe Rock & Roll itself is under attack by the government..He has a "Tea-Bagger Mentality"..Illegally harvested wood is just that..He needs to polish his business ethics and follow regulation..They exist for a reason..I love playing guitar too..but the environment is important..As artist we should respect that.
let me get this straight. Gibson has been purchasing wood from India, for the last 17 years, a country and its government, who is knowingly and willingly selling this wood to Gibson. correct? if so, then why is the US enforcing alleged Indian export laws that India is solely responsible for? If India were buying rare US redwood (example) for manufacturing, would India come down on its people to enforce a US law? fuck no. So what is really going down here?
I would say that we can definitely afford to lay off each and every one of the people involved in this raid. If India has enacted a silly, protectionist, beggar-thy -neighbor law, then let them enforce it. But under no circumstances should the US government use any of its resources to harass an American company in this way.
What I would like to know is what does home land security which we have been told is to keep America safe from terrorism have to do with wood and guitars! It look like it was really set up to do is to bring down good Americans and the way of life we have..whats left of it!
Anyone that thinks we live in a democracy is deluded. We live in a corporate government. It has been so since 1980. We may vote but whoever we vote for is bought and paid for by the corporations. None of the politicians are interested in doing what the public wants, they do what they're told by the corporations. Obviously, Gibson has no lobbyists steering laws their way.
This coward and chief bows to the UN. Pathetic. Welcome to the new America. Just ignore it and it will go away im sure. I am ashamed of the people in my country. They stay willfully ignorant and laugh down anybody that try's to tell them the truth. I bet half of the people in this country think Gibson being raided is a good thing to stop "terrorism". There is no hope for them aside from God changing their heart. My heart breaks for our nation.
@jcmac1313 It's amazing when people who don't understand what they are talking about call people names, spout the republican doctrine and then say "god" and think they are in the right.
Try "reading" and learn what your typing about. Terrorism? The United States is the largest terrorist state on earth. "If you want to stop terrorism, stop doing it" (Noam Chomsky)
I am equally upset about what happened to Gibson. I'll read more about it and understand it better than make "ignorant" comments.
What is wrong with congress and our leaders? What is their job but to protect the people. Only one person stands alone to Protect our freedoms and that is RON PAUL. This man is producing jobs and the GOVT comes in with guns and raid him.
Something isn't right in this country,there is an ILL wind blowing and It won't be good for American people. Our freedoms are the most important issue we have right now,without them we all will be slaves to the system.
Those who want to help Gibson who don't play...you can simply purchase a Les Paul or SG Standard, and I will go through the trouble of playing and keeping it for you! Seriously, I'm fully behind Gibson on this BS, bureaucratic abuse from the Obama administration and his corrupt idiot AG Holder. I do play, and I had other plans for my next guitar purchase, but now a Gibson is all I will consider this time.
Freeze! Drop the wood! Captain Planet and the Planeteers! We're going to save this planet by armed force by golly! Also pay your carbon taxes to Al Gore!
the only law in question here is who finish the wood - India can sell the wood legally but they want a Indian employee to finish the wood, and Gibson has an American employee but the final touches on it - as in American Made/ Hand craftsman custom # 1 selling guitar. A National Treasure and American Icon for over 100 years.
A good old Chicago Mafia style shake-down, it's been going on for years, just happens now they seem to be running the show.- at last an answer to the eternal question, " How much wood would a wood cop cop if a wood cop could cop wood ?"
Wake uo Obama supporters! Wake up neo-con supporters! Ron Paul is the only presidential candidate who you can rely on to reverse the astonishingly fast roll out of full scale Nazism in the USA. The big money folks control this UN crap. The big money folks own Obama and Perry. Wake up! Leomade raids, garage sale raids, raw milk raids, home garden raids, taser killings, TSA sexual molestation, cash seizures from innocent people.. Do you want forced innoculations, forced Prozac, forced lithium?
What is really going on there? Why is America interested in jobs in other world power countries?
Normally I don't respond to other comments however yours is absurd and a really very understudied of a response to this post. Do you only vote for the party your dad voted for? Because this is an huge issue in America. Eisenhower and a whole slew of other Republicans would now be considered liberal. The next issue is that Obama is really a Republican so, no change here again.
buying raw building materials doesn't make you "out for their jobs"... lol, your kidding right?
I think I'm on pretty solid ground here when I say India has stolen way more jobs from America then we could ever get back on some wood for guitars lol "absurd".... dude really, your are calling me absurd?
@phantomcharger I don't check my Youtube messages very often so I will now reply to you. I never wrote anything about being "out for jobs." I was suggesting that policies are in place to ensure jobs in other countries. Take a look at the Occupy (insert a city) movement(s) that is just the notion it has been stating. It is not so much "some wood for guitars" as the Corporate outsourcing as a whole. Perhaps a straw/ camels back sort of situation.
@jaysharpwilliams I vote for the constitution, liberties, and freedoms.
to say Obama is a republican, is to say you have no idea what republican values are (or at least use to be). RINO's aren't republicans, they are socialist democrats in the republican party. Another thing my unlearned friend, war hawking is NOT a republican value, no matter how many fake republicans claim it is. Ron Paul....
@phantomcharger There are no "real" republicans i.e. Abraham Lincoln any longer. I am trying to suggest that Obama has backed the republican front with Bipartisan ideaolgies so much and stood on the conservative side so that it could be interpreted or construed as being republican. Also, republicans have lost the notion of liberal republican or conservative Democrat. It seems that if you do not stand so far right of anything rational than you are a liberal.
voting- democracy, is an important PART of a republic, but there are rules in a republic, written down in a 'constitution', principle by which the republic... the people, live by.
Rules that protects the minority from the majority!
the type of rules that keep the majority from say killing all the jews, or harassing a small business... out of business because they support the party that's currently out of power.
I find it hilarious how some people accredit those who roll their punches toward the shadow oppressors of big company markets, who literally forced people out of their jobs, out of their homes, and into the streets - citizens who've VOTED for THEIR president. Some people would literally take the shots for this amount of bullshit from the highrollers who had even stood by BUSH and are the same people we support. And STILL.... people think they give a flying fuck about who we vote.
Let me make it simple... WE are products of a spoiled multi-corporate function of no visionary dreams. WE are deluded into believing that we can make a difference as to who we can choose to amend. It's the exact same thing as Blair. THEY DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT WHO WE VOTE FOR. If they've got the right shirt and the right face... they are our president.
having no interests in some shared "visionary dreams"
I just want a lot less government, and the liberty to take care of myself, don't ask anything of me, and I will not take anything from anyone by way of the government.
This is the government just trying to control its pepole this is bull I won't say the rest but u know how can they just hit one place when all the places use them if I was u I would sue them for this u can sue for being singleing out by the gov
