Lesson to other manufacturers: Waiting 50 years to protect your designs is dumb.

Simplify the lineup and remove the guitars that add unnecessary expenses but bring little revenue, focus on keeping only the best ones.

I'm sure that they also knew that, win or lose, they would still be getting paid.

Yes, but I'm sure that the retainer and per diem are still substantial.

Why is this interesting?
Both designs are fugly enough not to be massively copied anyway.
I'm sure it must be a point somewhere that I'm failing to see?

I think the Firebird design is cool... it's the RD that's kind of an atrocity that's become hip lately.

I think the RDs look cool when Ghost is playing them. Beyond that, not so much.

I think the RD is Gibson’s most attractive design - But the Firebird is my favorite typical Gibson style (not a Les Paul fan, at least the body shape.)
The *true* ugly is a non-reverse Firebird- Then again I’m an offset fan, and both Firebirds basically are uglier Jazzmasters.

Re: More bad news for Gibson
If they simply made consistently excellent guitars at a fair price, the competition copping their designs would not be a big enough threat to worry about. There's not a lot of danger from quasi-legal competition copying your **** if you simply provide people with what they want yourself. Instead of suing those copying their designs, they should try to make a product that is competitive with those companies.
