Members Shooter1371 Posted January 20, 2009 Members Share Posted January 20, 2009 Are these guitars actually in your possession? The pics look like they were lifted off one of the websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lonnie99 Posted January 20, 2009 Members Share Posted January 20, 2009 I gotta say, I know a few people who have some of these Chinese knockoffs and they say good things about them. If these things aren't illegal and the seller is up front about what they are I don't see a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thesockmonster Posted January 20, 2009 Members Share Posted January 20, 2009 They are. He's supposedly a seller for these Chinese websites, and these are blatantly illegal copies. Gibson's been having a good deal of these sites shut down. Emad brought the banhammer on this mug over @ UG for trying to sell these copies. It's illegal, mate - pack it up.

WOW! what a deal http://www.ioffer.com/i/Gibson-Zakk-Wylde-Bullseye-Les-Paul-Custom-82890916 And to think these guys sell em for $200 or less (if you offer it) all day long. Get out dirtbag.

Members lndianScout Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 sent to Gibson... we'll see what they have to say.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rparchen Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 So what is the consensus of people selling/trading these copies in this forum? I mean a regular member who is upfront about it, not like the spammer above from China. I have a black one that I've been thinking of trading but don't want to cause an uproar over it.

Members Sinster Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 rparchen.. If it says Gibson a lot of people throw a fit.. if it looks exactly like a Gibson (Edwards, Graco, Burney, and etc.) and doesn't have on the "GIBSON" on the headstock nobody says a word. If you put "Pre-Lawsuit" then it's pretty much good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sinster Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 The OP has hit the crack pipe to much.. If somebody going to pay 500.00 for a "COPY" they might as well purchase a Epiphone. I'm all for if you are up front about them being copies but this guy tried to pass them off as real on other sites. Plus he has way to many to just say he was "trying" them out.

Members rparchen Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 Yeah, sort of what I thought...it may not be worth the hassle. I bought it with the intentions to mod it (I love my white one) but it's been sitting for almost a year now and I haven't touched it. Maybe I'll just hang it up on the wall and call it good.

Members thesockmonster Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 I'm only upset because he tried this crap over @ UG, and is obviously trying to pull a personal profit margin. I've owned Agiles, and I've owned Jap Lawsuits. I'm not against copies, I'm against people trying to rip others off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ajboy238 Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 Let me bold out the flaw in your comment for you... I'm only upset because he tried this crap over @ UG, and is obviously trying to pull a personal profit margin. I've owned Agiles, and I've owned Jap Lawsuits. I'm not against copies, I'm against people trying to rip others off. UG is a joke. I got banned from there for harassing a guy that ripped me off, Nuff Said.

Members Benjamin3156 Posted January 21, 2009 Members Share Posted January 21, 2009 Does anyone know where I could get a 3 pickup sg copy like the one the OP posted on the cheap? I've always wanted one and I would feel bad for beating the hell out of a $3000 investment.
