70's Gibson L6-S Midnight Special question...

[FHussar]

Hello all,

 

I have a 70's L6-S Midnight Special and I'm wondering if the headstock logo was a decal or how it was fixed to the headstock. The model I have seems to be missing the logo...think this has any effect on the guitar's value? 

I'll be able to add pics when I can figure out how to make the files smaller...Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello

A Gibson without Gibson on the headstock will be worth considerably less than one with it on.  You can buy a decal on the net:

Pics - you only get a tiny amount of space on this forum, not enough to post pics, so....

We all upload our photos to an image-sharing site (imgur, postimage etc) - not photobucket as it is not free any more - and then copy and paste a link to the photo.  When you upload a photo the sites will give you a choice of links, one of which will work....!  I use postimage and usually copy then paste the 'direct' link they give.

thanks !  emailed Gibson about the logo, they said is was silkscreened on, and if I sent the guitar to them, they could replace the logo...I'll have to figure out how to upload pics!

Thanks again!
