wiggy Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Whilst idly browsing ebay I came across this one - looked closer as I have an Epi LP ST Natural Finish. These were only available as a limited edition run and were pretty much all snapped up when they came out so was surprised to see one come up as new and in stock. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Epiphone-Les-Paul-Standard-Electric-Guitar-Natural_W0QQitemZ110397539626QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item19b434c52a&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1688|240%3A1318|301%3A0|293%3A10|294%3A50 Would be interested in your opinions as to whether it's a goodun (not planning on buying myself) as a few things look wrong to me. 1. All the Naturals were limited edition and came with gold hardware 2. The pickguard should be 4 ply black/white/black/white 3. Switch surround should be black 4. Control cavity covers should be black 5. PUP surrounds should be black 6. Should have Honduran mahogany veneer on rear of body 7. According to Gibson the body is Nato with a maple cap and flame veneer (NOT Mahogany/Alder) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azagthoth Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Looks a little fishy to me,i agree with what you say above. The picture taken on a dirty old matress in an ikea bed really helps promote that 'black market charm' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
