Saw this posted on one of the "other" guitar forums (AGF) and was surprised. Gibson has a big news release on their website about it also. As you can see by my signature, I have a couple of Garrison guitars and have really been impressed with them. I like them for their innovation and the sound/playability. A lot of folks have bad mouthed them (but hey - some people do it to Ovation too), but I've been happy with them. Wonder what will happen to the Garrison brand? Will it survive or disappear to become a Gibson? Time will tell I guess.

He'll keep the name but I think Al has the rest right.
