I wonder if the fact that their CEO is a major Democratic fundraiser/donor has anything to do with it?

Who, Fender?
I've got my minty '78 Strat (with a rosewood fretboard, I might add) to make noise with and as far as I know PRS is still in business for when funds allow, so I'm good [Coffee]

Apparently this is the SECOND raid of Gibson in the last couple years.

One of Gibson’s leading competitors is C.F. Martin & Company. The C.E.O., Chris Martin IV, is a long-time Democratic supporter, with $35,400 in contributions to Democratic candidates and the DNC over the past couple of election cycles. According to C.F. Martin’s catalog, several of their guitars contain “East Indian Rosewood.” In case you were wondering, that is the exact same wood in at least ten of Gibson’s guitars.
