I think we were afraid of this subject. It will go political really fast. Very interesting read but we might want to lock the comments.

I read the entire article; interesting and informative, but not one bit political. Where did you get the notion that discussing Fender will "go political really fast"??

Nice to see you still check-in on us, Boss!

Interesting. Hopefully, Fender will weather this storm.

The article, itself, was not political, but I can see many ways that one might comment on this in a political manner. (not that anyone here would do so!!)

How about this:
Guitar Center is owned by Bain Capital.
Somehow that just makes sense.

In general I fond the article sobering. A virtual wet blanket on my get-rich-quick scheme.

And another wet blanket for me Chuck.

Right you are Chuck.

This subject has come up on the left leaning TV and radio shows but Fox and Rush won't mention it.

No political statements, John, per our policy.

Sorry John. I baited you into making an out-of-spec comment.
Being that this discussion was begun by or former Unitary Executive I felt a need (compulsion really) to put my toe on the line.
Its what I do. <BSEG> <-- old school

I TOLD you that we should lock this one.
