the other side Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I don't know about the case, but it looks real fake to me. Side view even looks like there is a heal cap on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buc McMaster Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Doesn't look to be real Gibson. The label shows no model designation and is the wrong shape. Bound headstock, block inlays, heel cap, belly down bridge........doesn't look right at all. Still, it might be a good player and serve the purpose.

Well, as long as it didn’t cost anywhere near real Gibson coin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the folks that send me the phishing email banking offers, riddled with typos, have branched out into guitar labels? Diversification, the key to business success. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-minor7 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Hi again Jos. Understand your curiosity and why you may be tempted. But if you want a Gibson you should probably pass. . Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jos Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Thanks guys for the advise. I’m gonna pass this one and hold ground to my (original) 335. From the beginning this guitar didn’t felt quite right and now I have the confirmation. Have a since Sunday y’all. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know about you, but I thinks it’s pretty cool how our spidey sense can pick up on warning signs that we aren’t even consciously seeing. Keep up the hunt!
