I really should have read the description properly. Saw an Epiphone Ace Frehley LP for sale and, as they don't come up very often, I bid (and won). Didn't even check the pictures that well - I also know nothing about les pauls in general. Turns out it's a 'Japanese' (according to the seller, most likely Chinese though?) copy! I mean, fair enough there are fake Gibson Ace's out there, but a fake Epiphone?!
Anyway, here are some pictures from the auction which may amuse, I'll give it a proper inspection when it arrives. Don't even think it would be worth swapping parts over, so it might end up hung on the wall as an art piece!
Les Paul gurus - tell me what's wrong with this fake!
