StrYk3D Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 It looks legit to me. Ppl says the "h" in the Headstock "epiphone" Must be with a Sharp Pitch in it: And Mine doesnt has that "sharp" pitch..:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeks Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 I think some of this LOGO stuff is not that accurate... here is the logo of my new Epi Lucille... The RED is because the afternoon sun shines through the red drapes here... kinda nice actually.... ...so check out the Scripting on this Lucille logo for kicks...

animalfarm Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 On initial viewing, it looks like a REAL SG. Not a lot has been dedicated to spotting SGs, just the headstock pics, and your headstock has the "proper" spacing between the center of the tuner posts and top rings and the edge of the headstock. Looks like my LP Studio headstock in that regard. Most of the fake SGs are spotted because of the POOR job of reproducing the BEVEL around the edge of the guitar, yours looks even and balanced. And your Knob grouping looks symmetrical, rather than having one of 'em off to the side a bit. Just my thouhgts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buliwyf Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Who would fake a Epiphone SG? at there low price point whats the point when your faking a $300.00 to $400.00 guitar.I'd be more curious about getting a fake Gibby in the thousands of dollars range.Turn over and check what your pickups say usually dont they say Epiphone on the back.Maybe Im all wrong but just my thoughts.

RobinTheHood Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 A lot of people who have no glue clue buy the fakes every day (on the Bay...) So close, Peter...so close... Sorry. I had to do a doubletake on that one. Glue = Leim But yeah, you can find fake Epis all day long. The most common fake Epis are LPs like the BlackBeauty or anythin Zakk. But there are plenty of fake SGs out there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
