kwb Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 Hey everyone, new here! I've had many Gibsons over the years but not a Custom or specifically an Axcess. Can anyone tell me if this is legit? slightly worried about where the 'G' hangs down logo on the back of the neck. (1st and 2nd pic) Cheers! https://ibb.co/PCxzm3v https://ibb.co/rmTC1K4 https://ibb.co/RjmmRxz https://ibb.co/mC1xmYL https://ibb.co/7J360zx https://ibb.co/Lnmf3nS Quote
SteveFord Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 Nothing looks really strange other than it lead a pretty rough life. Plastic bobbins are different and gold plating on this one: http://legacy.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2016/Custom/Les-Paul-Custom-Axcess-Stopbar.aspx Quote
kwb Posted March 6, 2022 Author Posted March 6, 2022 @SteveFord I was concerned about the Gibson decal at the back also - as I've had standards in the past and just want to be sure its legit. I believe the owner had switched out the pickups but the orignal ones are also included and are zebras. Here are more photos with it's certs, case and original pickups. https://ibb.co/xHv57G4 https://ibb.co/RYMcRCz https://ibb.co/FJx4gtT https://ibb.co/1rdxqsy https://ibb.co/QN2bPVX Quote
SteveFord Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 (edited) None of the fonts look different, from what I can see, from that old Gibson legacy page. Vintage Richlite and I'd say C- for cosmetics, it wasn't pampered but if it's cheap enough it might be worth getting. Edited March 6, 2022 by SteveFord Quote
