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...

Hmmmm . . . . Gibson says its made in the USA, Gibson is a 100 year old company with a reputation to protect, Gibson would lose millions in judgements and bad publicity if it tried to pull such a stupid and easily exposed stunt . . . .
but Gibson - that huge smart international corporation - nonetheless lets some "Gibson Official Dealer in Europe" - you know, a guy who runs a store licensed to sell Gibson stuff - in on their big secret?
No offense, but Gibson says its Made in the USA - Gibson is subject to huge litigation from private lawyers and the Federal Trade Commission if it is lying as blatantly as you state . . . .
I think your friend doesn't know what he's talking about.
