Gilmour's name is no longer Free

It seems that playing a Hiwatt is no longer enough to use your image incessantly without your permission. It seems that the DG series and references to David Gilmour are no longer emblazened on the MG Hiwatt website. DG's legal team must have been busy. Good for him.

I'm glad to hear it. I remember after Live8 Hiwatt running an ad saying he was using the custom DG heads during that show. Very soon after that ad appeared Phil Taylor his guitar tech said those are the same heads he's been using since the 70s. That was a very misleading ad.
