While the seller Trump Guitars is not directly owned by the president-elect, its electric model is marketed as "the only guitar officially endorsed" by him.

The 130-year-old guitar maker alleges that the instruments infringe on its design trademarks, particularly the famous Les Paul model.

On Monday, the Gibson guitar company sent a cease and desist order to 16 Creative, the owner of Trump Guitars, claiming that the design of its single-cut electric guitar model “infringes upon Gibson’s exclusive trademarks, particularly the iconic Les Paul body shape.”
