Gibson Guitars send cease and desist to Trump

Gibson has issued a cease and desist order to Trump Guitars owner 16 Creative, accusing it of infringing upon its trademarks. In a new statement shared with Guitar World, Gibson writes: We can confirm a cease and desist has been issued against 16 Creative as the design infringes upon Gibson exclusive trademarks, particularly the iconic Les Paul body shape.

By now, you have probably seen Trump Guitars, a new guitar company that produces Donald Trump-, MAGA-inspired instruments, some of which command five-figure prices.

It's not against him, but against the company t***p Guitars though he's probably licensed the name and is taking a cut.

I know.

He is not worried in the least. With the justice department in his pocket.

Good luck to them getting him/them to cease & desist. Good knews for those taken to "destroying" their instruments on stage. Now they can destroy fake Les Pauls that look like the real thing.

He already did that, kinda. You can get your own on a Black Friday deal. Dear Leader would be pleased.
