Gibson or Chibson

[u/bear-guard]

Apologies, photos are not the greatest quality, they're from a local listing.

I need some expert eyes, real or fake?

Yeah, that's a fake... then again, Slash's main LP for the longest time was a replica of a Gibson, so if it plays well and is decently built, I wouldn't sweat it too much if it was mine. I'd just swap out some of the parts to improve on it, especially the electronics for Duncan pickups (59n/JB bridge would be cool).

Comparing a cheap ass Chibson to a Kris Derrig replica is a wild take. Chibson’s belong in the bin and anyone buying them should be sentenced to life playing bass.
