how come no one seems to care about patenting anything anymore? you see patent numbers (or pending) over all this old stuff but not anymore. and things that were patented (humbuckers?) are used by everyone now.

They're Grover tuners with a Fender F on them.

That whoel guitar makes me think of Disney' Davey crocket and other 60's wilderness shows. Don't ask why. It just seems like some big bearded C-list celeb, long ofrgotten in the sands of time, should be playing it on the porch of a log cabin in a pine forest, teaching about hibernation and how dangerous wolves are and thank god for the hunters who shooot them.

It is a patent pending number. Once you have the patent you don't need the number.

so are people paying gibson for the rights to make humbuckers? because the amount of companies that make them are pretty extensive.

i played an antigua coronado with those special issue tuners on it, and altho it looked kool and unique, i still missed the look/ feel of the fender f-keys of the day. or better yet, the klusons from yesteryear.

Patents eventually expire, and then anybody can make copies of the idea.
