SkateMusicLife64 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Not that I would EVER think of buying this, especially after seeing all of the other guitars, but what is up with this? http://www.ioffer.com/i/NEW-Gibson-Custom-Shop-Les-Paul-Custom-Ebony-Guitar--92405091 Looks real...

:oilpit: Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Firstly, sh*tty post title. Secondly, that's a picture of a real black beauty, because if that's a fake, it's a damn good one. Or maybe we just can't spot a fakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantha Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I'm no expert by any means.. but that looks pretty real to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkateMusicLife64 Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 My guess is that that's just the picture and the seller will send you a horrible Chinese copy- if he sends you anything at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the member said that the guitar looks legit but the seller is not. And I agree it looks legit. The only difference that I can see between this one and my Custom is the TRC. The white edge of the TRC on my Custom is thicker compare to one listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 ^ a reissue, that's why the TRC is like that. Either a '54 or '57 Custom. Your Custom is probably a regular Custom. Here's my NEW!! R9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugapablo Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 The seller is in China. He insists the guitar you buy is the one in the picture. But this is definitely falling under the "too good to be true" category. Best case scenario, these are stolen and you're benefiting. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkateMusicLife64 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 I love how on some of the other guitars, someone will ask if they are fake and the seller is like, "They are real Gibson's, just made in China" I laughed my asss of at this one http://www.ioffer.com/i/Zakk-Wylde-Les-Paul-model-Custom-Gibson-Electric-guitar-95308819 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 The truly sad part is that someone probably will buy this. "Hmm, I see that it normally sells for a magnitude more, but I'll just go ahead and buy this one because I'm getting the deal of a century." Which one is the bigger fool, the seller or the buyer?

Thundergod Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Wait a minute... I just noticed something, and if it is what I think, they just got wiser (our nigthmare scenario). Look at the pics that show the frets and the fret binding... doesnt it look like the fret's been painted to look like the binding goes all the way like real gibbies??? Maybe Im just nuts, please check them out and see for youeselves... they look like painted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlekenny Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Im almost positive that the guitar at that website is a real Gibson. Whether or not that's the actual guitar you're getting is another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
