Hi all,

Appreciate if I could get some help to identify this LP - the type of model, year, approx. price of this guitar and if it all looks relatively original. I tried using a serial number decoder, but it didnt have too much info on the actual model and I'm coming up with two dates of 1976 (Kalamazoo) and 2000 (Nashville) - so clearly I'm already doing something wrong! My dad had this hiding away in storage and wanted to give it to me, so I'll give it a nice clean with some new strings.

Sorry to tell you this is NOT a real Gibson LP.

Bridge posts have screw slots - wrong.

Scarf joint on neck - wrong.

Headstock has no 'wings' - wrong.

There's more that gives it away but those 3 things immediately stick out.
