reported issues with a noisy preamp and or grounding even though you could argue that's a vintage correct feature.

Sounds like Tronical is trying to get to the front of the line of creditors and recoup as much as possible while the boat sinks.

Their inventory may be secured, but they'll be way behind the major creditors. The way I see it, they are putting potential investors or financiers on notice, assuming their claim is valid. OTOH if a Chapter 11 filing is made, they're probably screwed.

Gibson's response to Tronical's claim:

https://www.channelnews.com.au/gibson-brands-close-to-chapter-11-as-new-a60m-legal-action-revealed/

They're basing that on a Gibson press release from about a week ago. I thought Gibson's press release was the publicity stunt and smacked of desperation. The Wall Street Journal says that Tronical has been complaining about missed payments since 2014.
