I wonder if those guitar cases are any good...hmm.

Hamtone · 09-29-2009, 02:53 PM

Does look pretty good. The pearl being in the first fret would bother the hell out of me though..lol

bfcg · 09-29-2009, 03:07 PM

Real customs have 1st fret pearl inlay.

Did you ever take a look at a Les Paul Custom?

Hamtone · 09-30-2009, 01:37 PM

Just never noticed..It would bother me on the gibson custom as well..lol

I love this review of the guy.

Quote:

It did not arrive ready to play and thus will require a set up and electronics must be replaced to acheive authentic Les Paul tone. It would be perfect for display as is. I only hope I can get it to play as well as an Epiphone LP copy made in China.

So let me get this right, the guy is willing to pay more for a guitar than he would and epiphone even though it doesn't sound as good. All because it frauduantly says gibson on the headstock.

Do people who buy these realize that the only people that these will fool are people who don't know anything about or care anything about a LP?

Why not just buy an epi?

What if he bought it to display on the wall of his nightclub or something similar?
Where hanging a real 2000 dollar + instrument would not be the smartest idea. In those instances the replica market seems to have a place. And, in my experience, you have to change the electronics and the setup of an Epiphone, to achieve the "Les Paul" sound too.

It is still illegal.

Why not just buy a les paul style guitar and put on the wall, why does a nightclub owner have to get one that says Les Paul on it?

You get a better sound from the epis than the pressed plywood chinese fakes and you aren't supplying money into a crooked and ****ed up operation.

Great argument though.

Agree... I just was thinking why the D-H-G-A-T-E banner keep appearing in the top of the forum page as an sponsor. Wouldn't it be such a "support"?
