Let's see: (1) TC Group is headquartered in Denmark. (2) Uwe says he's vacationing in Denmark. (3) Merger talks collapse. Is this a coincidence?

I'm betting money that there was conflict on a stipulation that the NR Thunderbird IV be reissued under the Gibson name.

They could sell it to Uwe, then sue due to design infringement of their guitars?

I had a good earnest talk with these Herren of TC. Made them aware in what good shape all these German WW II bunkers still are - ready for renewed use so to say ...
