  • Les paul copy?

    I bought this les paul copy a few years ago and after all this time I still can't figure out what brand or year it is from. From the body shape and the indent of an oval thing, possibly a logo plate, I would say a Stagg but those do not have the same headstock shape. It is a set neck guitar.

    It kind of reminds me of when Agile re-did their lower bout. I don't think that's what it is though.

      Body shape looks like it, but the headstock is different... Have seen multiple brands where either the body or headstock shape was the same but no luck finding both on the same guitar yet.

        Made in Asia...Could be anything. Better pix with more detail might help.

          Any suggestions of what kind of pictures might help? There is no serial number, date or anything on it

              It does a bit, but those had asymmetrical headstocks, iirc.

              I remember at one point St Blues was using the same horn cut as Agiles, but I can't recall what headstock they had at the time.

                  More important question: How does it feel and sound?

                    It's hard to tell with just the one (not great) photo above, but to my eyes, the Firefly headstock has a more pronounced bump in the middle.

                    Also, I mostly (only?) see that headstock on their semi-hollows; all the LP-copies of theirs I can find have a more complicated headstock shape.

                        Headstock looks dead-on- even down to the tuner buttons - but the horn isn't quite right. The Dillions don't look quite as truncated to me.

                        Still, this is the best guess so far.

                          Got some more pictures for you guys.
                          Sure looks kinda like a dillion, but those all have a logo and some kind of crown on the headstock while this one has the indent of I think a logo plate that has fallen off.
                          ​​off.
                          I got the guitar as a project so no original pickups or bridge. Also the guitar kind of sounds like it is hollow from a bit up at the bridge pickup until around the tailpiece but no sign of this in the pickup cavaties.
