bayoubengal1954 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 They show pictures of the inside of the guitar which purport to show a serial number and the guitar ID'd as a D-28, but the top looks all wrong, rosette among other issues. Then the neck looks like a new one was attached with the Gibson logo "silkscreened" on the headstock. Very odd indeed.

blindboygrunt Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Bit of a head melter . Hard to figure out why someone would make a copy and try to copy two guitars at the same time. The price is very optimistic isn't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
