  • They tried to sue Daddy Mojo... and backed off.

    They tried to sue Loog Guitars... and backed off.

    Now they're trying to claim that they, not Bo Diddley, designed the Bo Diddley guitar?

    Wonder what Bo Diddley's estate thinks of that...

    Discussing its design, Gretsch states: "Beginning in 1958, the Gretsch company supplied a rectangular Gretsch guitar to rock legend Bo Diddley, who famously used that guitar in his subsequent public performances."  Gretsch further alleges: "In 1999, Gretsch reintroduced the classic Gretsch rectangular guitar, which has been continuously sold to the public since that time."  The '459 Registration issued on June 13, 2000 and identifies Gretsch as the registrant.  "The Rectangular Guitar Trade Dress," alleges Gretsch, has become widely known in the guitar industry, and the purchasing public has come to recognize its distinctive shape as an indicator of a Gretsch guitar."

  • lol   RTZ,    i  boldly introduced  myself to   the makers  of that guitar  after    lbl   sent   me  a  link.   so  no  worries   there  .  

    oddly   enough  ..   i  think   it  was   gibson  that was  suing them  for   another  design  they  had   back in  the  60's  .   lol
