As of yesterday, Gibson is no longer "on the verge of bankruptcy." They filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
For those of you outside the U.S., Chapter 11 is bankruptcy protection that allows a company to reorganize and pay off creditors over time, under direction of a government trustee. So in this case, the intent of the bankruptcy isn't liquidation and discontinuation of Gibson as a functioning company, but to get the company back on its feet over time.
It would be a shame to lose an iconic music brand to the corporate miasma, so I hope things work out for them.
