SJ200 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Hi Guys, I recently purchase this custom SG, and it does feel genuine when I played it. Sounds good and plays comfortably. However, the appointments and hardwares are somewhat different than Gibson usually put on their reissue SGs, and the seller claims it was specially made for guitar center during 05~06. Basically it has grover tuners and burstbuckers on a vos style body with nickel hardware. And it does not have the gibson custom logo on the back of the lower headstock/upper neck area. Just wanna check with you guys and see if anyone else has a similar guitar. I uploaded some pictures here: https://picasaweb.google.com/113504112922130400754/SG?authkey=Gv1sRgCLr89azL8puRMw Thanks, SJ200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJ200 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Coukd u please specify what are the "other things" that indicate this is fake? I think this model was called authentic before vos was introduced back then, FYI. I might be mistaken, not really sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rct Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Just be happy with "other things". Mustn't tip off the counterfeiters. They are under the bed right now, scanning all of the forums and online places for tips on making better counterfeits. THE WORLD IS FULL OF COUNTERFEIT GUITARS. Sorry. Just crax me up sometimes. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ200 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Just confirm with Gibson that this is indeed an authentic "authentic SG" exclusive made for the guitar center. Thank you guys for the input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
