Anybody see this eBay auction? So far the bid price looks kinda low for these specs:

Anybody familiar with this one?

I called Gibson Customer Service and it seems to check just as described in the eBay listing. Of course (as the seller already said) Gibson won't confirm the rosewood as being Brazilian or not. I beat you're right about the final bids.

Looks plenty real to me. Will prolly go for between 5200- 5800 my guess unless at the last min his sleeper bids what he actually wants for it
