KYSohn Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 What do you think? Fake Epi??? Based on the placement of the volume/tone knobs and the pickguard screw, I think this is a fake Epi... http://louisville.craigslist.org/msg/1049350323.html But then, he claims that it was professionally repaired for the neck damage. If so, he must've been told from that "professional luthier" that this was not a real Epi, I assume... But he listed it as "Epiphone Les Paul Custom"??? And the headstock doesn't even appear to have the usual custom diamond logo (though it is pretty hard to see)??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsideMan Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 KY, I'm not sure whether most luthiers would know how to spot a fake Epi. I did not know, myself, until I started reading this forum. But I agree with you it looks fake. To your list of sins, I would add the "out-thrust" cutaway horn. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
