    The payment was for 2008-09 case. Not this one. This one is result of the first raid. All this was , was a power play by the justice Dept. Gibson did nothing wrong. they corrected all the problems from the previous raid.

    If the US government are serious about making the USA a better place and the world a better place, raid “Monsanto” and food industry and seek a way to punish the the corporations that look after profits before people.
    REF: Documentary: Food Inc. ( a good watch)
    Seriously, raiding an American institution making a beautiful US hand made instruments, it really shows the weakness in USA Govt logic.

    the CEO of Gibson must be aware that this is the beginning of the US lockdown done by the Evil behind the US Govt. I invite this Gibson CEO to transfer to Manila Philippines!!! They’ve got good wood in the Philippines!!!

  5. EndofUSA says:

    I am amazed wth the stupid remarks regarding this video!! Gibson is an American hometown company and yet Americans seem not to support this old time company!!! This obviously is a clear harassment by the Evil US Govt that has some hidden agenda under its sleeve!!!

    Obama SMOKES BONG & LIKES IT AND SA

    He amended the Lacey act in 2008… you foolish & naive individual.

  8. Grungo009 says:

    You’re just a partisan tool, hilarious how it always comes back to Obama. I bet Obama doesn’t even know what Gibson is. Gibson meanwhile admitted to violating the Lacey Act and paid up. There would be legal action right now if they had been wronged. You’re just going along with the Tea Party rhetoric. Which is funny since that group are actually corrupting your elected governments and paying for lobby groups to give corporations more say than you or anyone like you could ever have. Moron…

    They’re not worthless, but it is a tough time to be selling one right now. If you check ebay, neither the studios nor the PRS are attracting a lot of bids. The good news is the PRS can be had pretty cheaply.

  14. Telecaster Fan says:

    I can’t believe a company like Gibson was treated as criminals. I think “our” government should have better things to do.

    wouldn’t trade my Les Paul for the world!!

    If no charges have been laid, no laws have been broken, then your Government has Stolen from you. Then could you not file theft and harassment charges against those agencies?

  16. Aint1S says:

    The simple fact that someone overseas has more say over your home… a.k.a. Gibson… is insanity.
    It’s total crap that this is the even an issue.
    India wants their share of the taxes from their people’s works. That’s unethical and underhanded tactics. If you buy materials, you should get to use the materials however you want. It’s wood and not a dangerous chemical… it’s not patent infringement, just governmental greed.

  17. Aint1S says:

    The fact that they had to pay to dance around the court proceedings in this country is ridiculous. Obama has changed the “hippie” tree & wildlife acts. Offered up our national parks to the Chinese. He’s destroying the country. If you wanted lawyer block installed in your office, would you want a 30k job to be planed incorrectly overseas and you would have to pay for more? If you passed away and your wife got the deed… only for her to step into your crap.

  18. CrazyDiamond1968 says:

    What a bizarre load of BS. You’re confusing your political beliefs with a guitar company and a CEO who committed fraud.He took no repercussions on his own, he paid $350,000 to stay out of jail. Wake up, this has nothing to do with Obama, this has to do with illegal wood smuggling and Fish & Wildlife.

  19. CrazyDiamond1968 says:

    I can’t listen to one word this man says, he’s a massive liar, a smuggler, and he’s very ,ucky the case didn’t go to court because he’d be running Gibson from a jail cell. If you think Gibson makes the best guitars in the world then it;s obvious you’re not a guitarist.

    The Wood in a Gibson is different! Epiphone’s are still good but not the same. There is also a whole bunch of other stuff to blab on about but people who bash Gibson’s need to grow up
