It's a bad fake Gibson.

This is what it really is but some jack ass put a bad Gibson logo on it and is trying to pass it off as custom...

[TheLivingDead]

[Snoogles]

Why doesnt he just say he stole it?

Theres nothing wrong with a Ravelle. Just call it what it is, everyone can tell anyhow.

Well I can tell you that Greenpoint is on the North Shore of Long Island, but other then that it looks like a cheap copy.

Its either 631(probably Suffolk County) or 516(Nassau County) its an outside shot that it could be 212 (NYC) but I doubt it. Greentpoint is an easy 100 miles from NYC.

EDIT*** Sorry my bad. Greenpoint is in Brooklyn, NY so it could be (718) I was thinking Greenport, which is on the Northeastern tip of Long Island.

Didn't anybody notice this...?

[Lucid_Lunatic]

Looks like something Jerry would buy.

[MetalManiac]

The guy selling it is probably NOT from Greenpoint, but from Fire ISland, cause he's trying to **** someone in the @$$.

[JOLLY]

I am a singer and dont really know much about guitars

Ya reckon?
