chibson les paul....chinese copy gibsons

Re: chibson les paul....chinese copy gibsons

Another dead thread about reissue Lawsuit Les Paul's not made by the original company.

Yes, EMGs and ultra high gain is the perfect partner for these guitars

lol. no kidding. i couldn't hear any les paul in that boss metal zone boosted solid state amped chibson. any plank of wood would have sounded the same.

Does it have its own brand and headstock or does it try to be a Gibson-branded guitar?

Everyone seems to forget that GIBSON owns a factory in Qingdao China (Epiphones and parts for Gibsons)

Does it say CHIBSON?

I don't have a problem with Chines/ Korean/ Indonesian guitars . My problem is with Fakes and Bad copies. A few weeks back someone was trying to sell a PG Ibanez out here in a local used instruments forum. A total RIP OFF, copy.

It says Gibson on it. I have no issues with that. I wasn't looking for a gibson, i really just wanted to see what buying a bootleg guitar from china was all about. i was prepared for anything (wrong color, broken guitar, seized at customs, etc) but was actually pretty impressed with what i got. anyone who knows what to look for in a les paul would be able to tell it's fake right away, and i personally would never sell it. i put new pickups in it and gave a quick tweak of the neck. it's a lot of guitar for $230.
