MikeRom Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Custom shop guitar with made in the USA stamped on the headstock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 ^ Who ever said it was a Custom Shop guitar? LP Customs were not made by the Custom Shop before 2004 (or 2003). The only thing that looks off to me is the pickup selector switch. Otherwise, the headstock looks OK & the fretboard looks really dark, like ebony.

rocketman Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The diamond on the headstock looks off to me. Shouldn't the center part be thicker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 hm.. yeah that's fake. Just step back and look at the overall body shape, it's ****ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The diamond on the headstock looks off to me. Shouldn't the center part be thicker? No' date=' I'd say the diamond looks to be the right size. Here's mine for comparison.

rocketman Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I don't follow your point. Well now I'm having doubts that it's fake. The headstocks look about the same and Are Nine explained the whole custom issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slogold Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 More Pix from seller.. I ask for a full front shot of headstock but didn't get any. Hmmmm. Let me know the final verdict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 FAKE. Fake bridge. Fake neck binding. More stuff but the above mentioned is decisive and undebatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
