I saw one of these on ebay.It's serial number doesn't contain any letters in it.There is label"hand crafted in China" at the back of the headstock..but in Wikipedia i've read,that serial numbers without letters are placed on epiphones made in Japan.What's wrong with this one?


Thanx

All I can say is that I believe there is a new serial number system going around.

That's what I understand from a few things I've read recently.

My advice? There is a stickied (stuck at the top of the page... cool, huh?) thread called the Fake Epiphone thread or something. There are experts who can tell you their opinion on the legitimacy of the guitar.
