It has come to our attention that there are quite a few trolls out there already proclaiming their “expertise” and their "professional and considered opinion" that this guitar is somehow fake, or not the guitar on the cover of Les Paul’s Autobiography, etc, etc. Oh the great internet… with its haters, know-it-alls, and bottom feeding forum dwellers who so desperately need to get a life, and go on and on about things they know nothing about. There’s an old saying that goes, “I won’t even dignify that comment (and your ignorance) with a response”. But with that said... we must set the record straight.
