It is supposed to be a 2007 Gibson Les Paul Classic Custom 3 Pickup Model, i really need to know if it is genuine/real? Thank you very much for all answers!

AXE® Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Is the guitar on ebay ? I have seen very similar photo layouts, carpet and all from a seller on the site . At a glance it looks right , but W/O serial numbers it's difficult to say for sure . If at all possible "PLAY before you PAY ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FennRx Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 shouldnt a Custom have block inlays starting on the 1st fret, not trapezoids on thr 3rd? and i think the Custom has the inlayed diamond, not a crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifsebcbien Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Yes it is but a weird one, it looks like a mix beetwee classic custom and custom, custom 57 3 pafs and classic custom peghead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FennRx Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 my bad, i thought it was supposed to be Custom.... I thought the Classic Custom only came with 2 uncovered PUs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3uroboy Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 yes the orig les paul looks like this Heres with open coil. It is on ebay, and all of them are from the same seller. I am sure that the seller wont be fooling me, *** he has 99,5% feedback and over 6000 satisfied customers, if it is fake, he must've been fooled too. But i just need a question. Should i rather buy on of the other two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3uroboy Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Yeah ive been checking sounds and trying guitars and stuff for like 6 moths now, and i kinda fell for the 07 Classic Custom. But tou cant get one for less than 5-6 K here in Norway. I've never tried the one with three pickups, just the original. But I still need to know if the one with three humbuckers is genuine..?

ALIEN8 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I'm guessing it is a Guitar of the Week... I bought the silverburst classic custom GOW, and it rocks, blew all others away, really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson CS Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 hey i bought my alpine white gibson doubleneck off ebay from this guy well packed, shipped fast, arrived as described hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 The picture 3uroboy posted is definitely not a Custom. You can tell buy the headstock and the missing inlay on the first fret. 3uroboy, try calling Gibson or emailing them. The inlays look weird to me because they're bright white like you'd find on a Custom Shop guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingarmadillo Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 It's one of the GOWs: http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Features/Introducing%20Gibson_s%20New%20Guita/ Third from the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3uroboy Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well this guy wouldn't take paypal, so i ended up buying another guitar of the week, this one: Les Paul Classic Custom with Three PickupsLes Paul Classic Custom with Three Pickups The luxury of a Les Paul Classic Custom gets amped to the nth degree with a trio of cream Dimarzio Super Distortion pickups. In a blazing Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish, this is a guitar that looks as fierce as it sounds. Searing sound capabilities and supreme style. Thank you for all answers:) Know where to go another time;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
