noelk27 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) He's clearly trying to hit all the sweet spots, mentioning Fugigen (sic FujiGen) and Ibanez, but I'm left wondering what he's basing those claims on. Oh, and then there's also the obligatory Gibson/Ibanez "lawsuit" reference (even though there was no lawsuit between these parties - but between Norlin (the brand owner of the Gibson trademarks/copyrights) and a US-based importer, Elger. Nothing to do with Ibanez. Nothing to do with FujiGen. Nothing to do with Japan. People should start to refer to those events in the US as American import protectionism, as that's what it amounted to.
