It's impossible to tell if it's original or not. The guys at Gibson custom shop (Tom Murphy etc) makes these new made LPs look authentic with cracks, dings etc. As i wrote, can't imagine this one being original since i've never heard of Ronnie having one from 58 or 59. He is a strat man and i doubt that he or anyone else would buy him a real one from 58/59 with those price tags, at least $150 000 for a 59 LP.

It s not a new one unless its been aged as the finish had cracks. Its called Roméo.

From the one picture I have seen now it looks like a CS 59 Vintage Reissue, not a vintage one.

Thanks - then Gibson is making a very good relic job because I was fooled.

I think something was not right with the pickup selector, like the tip was broken or shorter than a normal LP.

I think there's one of him taken at Municland in Georgio Morider's studios.

Ok I was wrong here's what I was thinking of :



BTW if anyone has the Munichland 73 pics handy I'm interested...been searching my HDs for a while for them now...
