  • Seems fishy to me............

    One of my recent ebay buyers has one of these "Gibsons" and told me about this site: http://www.mymusia.com/index.php

    Made in the same factory as the Chinese Epi's. How can this be, given Gibson's hard-nosed reputation?

      What the shit? How can that be legit at those prices? If someone here buys one and confirms it's all good, I'm totally down for a new geetar from China!

                Ya know, that "U" went right past me. Still......... The guy said that it's basically like the Epi's: all-around solid guitar except for the hardware and electronics.

                  The Chinese are known to make knock-offs, and yes, it has been discussed here before about them being like Epis. And as far as the logo, regular USA Gibsons do have the space in their logo as well.

                  I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                      Hell, the way Gibson has been going lately those fakes are probably a much better purchase for the money.

                        ouch. it's sad that mismanagement of a company can cause this kind of customer emnity and continue unabated.

                          Inlays are wrong.

                            We all know and joke about these Chinese "knock-offs" , but are there any manufacturers over there that are turning out real quality stuff? The potential is definitely there. If not now, in a few years time there's going to be guitars rivalling the best of any of the other mainstream brands coming from China.
                            Ten bucks says that some of them will be Gibson "USA"...
