Is this Les Paul Legit

[Raku10]

Is this Les Paul Legit, I checked the serial number, everything looks good. But I just want some expert 2nd opinions.

No dings or scratches, but one thing is the Gibson logo on the headstock, you can see the edge of the logo, not like totally flush. Maybe it's just cosmetic or the paint aging thing. I don't see any cracks or fix on it so...

how abt the logo thing, something of concern? or if it plays good fvck it...lol, it does feels good with the 60 neck...

 

[Underliner6]

It's good

 

[LPV]

That looks really good, but it looks like a newer model with an older style TRC. What year is that ?

 

[mobprop667]

looks ok to me.

Based on the evidence in the photos, it looks real to me. Do you have a pic of the S/N?

But seriously, just FYI, PM someone next time.

Gibson is sometimes rather sloppy with logo positioning. It is NOT a good way to determine fake from genuine. You might want to look into the Custom Shop if you want more attention to detail.
