Re: Is this really a Gibson?
I'm with you on that. It's still Grandfather's ax. Or hatchet, if you prefer. Replace the body with the body of another Gibson, it's still a Gibson; it's that model. (Sort of.) Replace the body with something from a non-Gibson mandolin, though, it's no longer a Gibson. It is still a mandolin, however.
Was Frankenstein's monster the original corpse, or the corpse from which the brain came? Is it the brain that determines a person's identity?
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
