Unbelieveable!

[butthead]

would anyone be brave enuff to bid for it?
it may not look good but it may sound like the REAL Gibson.
GBP190 for a sweet sounding Lee Paul may be well worth it.

 

[Hellcat]

I zoom it up.. and it did say 'Les Paul' wor... not Lee Paul leh.
But the neck don't look Ebony to me... thought all LP Custom had to be an Ebony Neck.. this one looks like a Rose wood...
oh.. and the truss rod cover doesn't look authentic.. They usually don't have sharp tip on the end of the cover... check it out. And it's usually not that 'Triangular'..

 

[butthead]

actually you cant really tell its a fake from far. in fact it looks pretty good initally until you start to look into the details. What matters most is still the sound and feel of the guitar.

 

[Hellcat]

But honestly, i don't mind paying less then SGD$800 for a fake Les paul. hahhahah.. at least better then my Epihone Dot!! :lol:

 

[butthead]

hellcat, I'm sorry to hear about your music123 plight. but don't worry, you will get your dream axe someday. Go and bid lah! Your dream may come true! who knows.

how much is that in SGD? lol. if it amounts to <$150 SGD, get a group of friends tgt, buy it for your lead guitarist friend and watch:

1) his face go O.O in awe, "OMG MY FRIENDS GOT ME A GIBSON", goes around hugging everyone saying you're all his best friends...

then...

2) his face go -_-" and maybe he'll beat u up with the guitar. oops?

 

[butthead]

shipping is GBP190..so i guess the guitar adds up to around SGD500 plus. why dont we bombard the seller more questions and see how he replies.... hehe

 

[CrispyEgg]

wats GBP and how did that become SGD 500 man!

i'd pay a buck for it.

 

[butthead]

GBP is also known as pounds...UK's currency. GBP1.00 is ard SGD2.50

GBP = Great Britain Pound

The rate is horrendous...

Actually, I might be visiting my uncle in San Fran end of the year.. heheh.. maybe can try to grab my G6120 on the way back! hahah.. In that way, I get to test the gear, feel the gear and maybe have a mini-honeymoon with her before I bring her back.. :lol:

 

[akira]

what the hell are you guys talking?! thats a real vintage Gibson Les Paul '57 Custom!!! geez thats a once in a lifetime chance you can get a Gibson Les Paul Custom for that price, maybe the seller listed the price wrongly, maybe he doesnt know the value but geez thats a real bargain!!!! omg

HOW CAN IT BE FAKE?! look at it closely, see how the triangles are precisely angled. And that rectangle, its just tilted correctly! And the workmanship looks superb!

BUT THIS MY FRIEND, is a fake

look how peculiarly the angles of the triangles are arranged, geez and that rectangle thingy, meh anyone can recognise this is a fake gibson. Even the binding is yellow, they must be using some rattan sticks for it, such shoddy work...

Dude ru sure the top picture is the real deal?You gotta be kidding right?

 

[CrispyEgg]
