MelodyMaker1

This is the one I saw on that site: http://www.guitarofchina.com/product_info.php?cPath=186&products_id=9195. This site can't be legal, can it? Why can't legimate companies like Epiphone do something about it?

Hey Sixstring, I couldn't get Bazaarofchina to come up. But I found a site called GuitarofChina that had everything from a es335 type of Slash guitar, to a Gibson Melody maker. I don't know if the pictures are of the exact guitars they are selling, but the Melody Maker I think could fool a lot of people. They've got so-called Gibsons with the two screw truss rod covers, and real serial numbers. But, they say they are new 2008 guitars, but the serial numbers say they were made in 2003, or some year other than 2008. I must admit some of them look pretty good. I can see how they would fool the novice or beginning player. Hell, if I hadn't read so much on this and other forums, I would be hard pressed to tell real from fake. Unless you look at the SG with a Les Paul Custom TRC. Somebody check it out and post what you think about it. S504
