Something one can expect as Gibson has been hawkishly defending its own patented guitar designs.

Have you ever seen an uglier guitar??

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes. The Les Paul shape is beautiful. I thought the Trump guitar looked familiar.

I won’t comment on design

To my understanding Les Pauls really don't stay in tune very well. Pretty, though. When they're not plastered in nationalism.

He would sell a turd wrapped in a gold napkin. What a con man.

That isn't really what is disturbing in my opinion. The disturbing part is people will buy it and tell you it is a gold nugget.

Are they built overseas? Will they be subject to tariffs I wonder?

I can almost guarantee exemptions for anything affecting the bottom line of the Trump organization.

From other articles I've read, some parts are sourced outside the US, some from within. I think the implication was that they're assembled in the US, but I haven't seen anything to completely confirm it.
