Made in America, mean that the Original GIBSON Amp is designed and develloped in USA but my friend who is Gibson Official Dealer in Europe say they are build in China, and come directly in Europe without transit in USA.
You know, many other things like bicycles, Hifi, electronic,... are really made in China and sold under American or European Factory name, and are labelled made in USA or Italy or Germany, because the original design and engenering is American or European.
Made in China is the cheapest way to make money...
The business is the business, my friend, money is money...
