Another Supreme Piece Of Rubbish

February 2nd, 2009

Billed as a Gibson Les Paul and a starting bid of $499 Australian! Somethings not right. Add to the fact that shipping is $3.50!!! For those in the USA that works out roughly at $2.22, for those in Europe around 1.74 Euros – to ship a 9lb guitar, somethings not right.
And wadda ya know, it probably doesn’t weigh that because it’s a fake Gibson Les Paul Supreme.

Notice the Gibson USA stickers on the pickups, they shouldn’t be there and the shape of the headstock is way off. If you had a picture of the back of the body I would be willing to bet this months morgage payment that it had plastic cavity covers on the back, a real one does not. Search fibsons.com for more information on these suspect Supremes.

A Blue Les Paul Supreme?

From the seller of the Suspect Supreme in the previous post comes this little plank.

Mmm, from a distance it looks good. Obviously the low starting price is an eyebrow raiser, these are expensive guitars, then you flip it around

and, oh, a flat back and cavity covers, it’s a fake. There is however another giveaway… THEY DON’T COME IN BLUE YOU DOUGHNUT.
