 Ni> It seems like an odd move, as Fender is only doing this now..

I think the problem is that someone made a slightly-better guitar, so now people are buying that, but it's clearly derivative.

So they're losing their business, so they don't have much to lose by suing, probably.

But I don't know. I read about it in context of the idea of a law to protect artistic styles. Which... seems like a bad idea, but I appreciate your attempt at making some _other_ discussions, and talking about laws is probably political at a time when we've had enough of that.
