    That's interesting and I am surprised about some of the brands being part of Gibson. BUT, I asked myself immediately how many of them are still active/doing prosperous business - Kramer? Tascam? Onkyo? I believe Fender bought more cleverly with Jackson, Charvel and Gretsch....

    Well... Onkyo had US $477.8 million in revenue in 2012 and 2,291 employees. Not too shabby?
