Here are a couple more pics. They are low res as there seem to be restrictions on image file sizes. The fret board has been worked on and I don't know if it is original or not. My brother-in-law was a fingerstyle played and had all of his necks either widened to 1 13/16" or replaced. This one, with the doubled up binding, was probably just widened. The guitar was most likely re-finished at some point. There isn't much sign of wear.. The finish has little cracking but lots of thin raised lines. You can see this on the headstock photo. This guitar also came with one pickup and the bridge which were replaced at some point. Even if it is fake someone upgraded it at some point.

I am selling this guitar for my late brother in law's estate. I don't know much about Gibson electrics. I am having trouble identifying this guitar as it has a label that says it is a L4-CES, but the tailpiece and fingerboard inlays don't look like typical L4's of this age. Also, the label looks pretty new for a 50 year old guitar. Any ideas? Thanks!

I am trying to sell this guitar for my late brother-in-laws estate. The label in the sound hole says this is a L4CES, serial number 899620. The inlays and tailpiece look original but don't seem to go with this model. The serial number seems to say this was made in 1968. Can anybody shed some light here? Thanks!
