[cocking my lovegun]

What's the go with the Gibsons Les pauls on Ebay from China. Of course
they are fake, there is no need to debate that but, i have been told
that they were originally made in the Epiphone factory then someone
puts the Gibson headstock on after. I dont know if that's true because
they also sell Kramer and Fender copies. Does anyone know exactly where

these fakes originate from?. I've actually played one of these copy's
and it plays beautifully and looks damn good to. Going on the one i
saw.. it was definately value for money... that's if Gibson doesn't sue

ya!

Can't say about this one - but I have a Profile Les Paul (Japanese I
believe) that I bought in 1984. It's a dead ringer for the real thing.
Even the pickups. I seem to remember that Gibson took Profile to task and
succeeded in getting their way.
