Gary Moore Tribute Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Before I dive in and buy this I need to know if this is a LEGIT Gibson Traditional I think The Finish is "Desert" , but he thinks its "Honey" Made in 2010 It comes with the case BUT is missing the warrenty card PS I'm waiting on Headstock & Cavity images
Gary Moore Tribute Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Better pics? It looks like Desert Burst, is that a sticker on the rear pickup? Yeah thats the "Plek'd" sticker Its the best picture he's sent so far (All top shots) so I'll post more as soon as I get them...
Big Bill Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Better pics? It looks like Desert Burst, is that a sticker on the rear pickup? +1. That's the PLEK sticker
Gary Moore Tribute Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Hmm mine was Plek'd and no sticker..... :angry: Same with my 08 Std alot of stores take the "Plek'd" off as it deters some buyers. Anyway he got back to me and he has Gibson Paperwork and the finish I just love! So I'm certain to a good enough extent this is a legit model. However I will still post the images when I get them.
strat-o-steve Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Looks just like mine. I say it's real. That's a GORGEOUS top by the way ;)
BigKahune Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 . From what I can see in that pic, it looks legit. Front and back shots of the headstock should be sent. BTW, that top is beautifully flamed and a nicely subtle burst. .
Angellus Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 from pictures its legit. I'd say desert burst but one of the darker shades almost tobacco. Plec sticker is correct truss rod cover is correct. I'd be happy with it
BillyGibson Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Looks real from here. How much is he asking?
Gary Moore Tribute Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 Looks real from here. How much is he asking? I scored it for £1,200 which is the same as my 08 Standard His list price was £1,350 A normal Traditional sells NEW here for £1,750 the plain finishes £1,600
swleary Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 It's real however would like to see the back of the headstock just to make sure :)
Tim Plains Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Fantastic top! Post more pictures! (without the plek sticker)
