Customs agents seize $158k worth of counterfeit guitars, including fake Gibsons, Fenders and Martins, at Washington DC airport

$158K would be the value if they were real.

Actual cash value of 36 Chinese fakes: about $1000.

They did relatively well on the Gib-Sun headstock, but "Fendel" and "Maltin" - alas! - gave them away. They didn't even attempt "Lickenbackel".   :popcorn:

They were almost successful too, if it hadn't been for that gletsch in the customs declaration ...
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
