Does a 3 screw truss rod cover always = FAKE GUITAR?

It looks like a fake to me as well, almost everything about it looks wrong. I would report the seller, I would bet he knows it's a fake. Report him before some good intentioned person gets screwed buying it.

The vendor does - indeed - know that the guitar is a fake. I and several other UK eBayers have sent messages, telling him so. Some of them have made derisory cash offers. I have pointed out that the eventual auction winner would be able to reject the item and claim a full refund on the grounds of it being wrongly described.

I re-checked the auction yesterday afternoon when I got home and it was upto £902!

The guy had added a comment onto the auction saying it'd been bought to his attention that it was a copy, and to feel free to cancel bids etc.

The next time I checked it'd gone down to £600, which is still too much imo!

That is more than they sold for when brand new. :smack:

My epi SG has a 3-screw truss rod access cover. I know it's not a fake epi but it is a fake gibson. I love my epi anyway. But I hate your question......

An Epi isn't a fake Gibson. Its an Epiphone, a pricepoint subsidiary of Gibson Inc. In many ways you have bought a legitimate Gibson, as it is indeed the only authorised use of that shape by another 'brand'
