Real Gibsons were in short supply and many felt the quality was not up to standards so many of these makers made a living building these lovely handmade copies at knock down prices compared to a new Gibson Mastertone. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the experienced eye, there are a number of “tells” that indicate it is a copy. The script on the Gibson logo and the Mastertone inlay is slightly off.  The binding is Ivoroid rather than plain plastic, lovely binding but not authentic. There is no serial number and label on the rim inside the pot. The finish on the 3 ply rim is not the same gloss lacquer one normally sees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example is in very good overall condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA great way for players on a limited budget to get a really fine instrument into their hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;
