dlloyd Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I'm not an expert on Gibsons, but the logo looks fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBobTTD Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) I have a hunch that the serial number doesn't pan out. By my memory, it makes it a '52! Edit for year...I recall first digit being the decade, the next three being the number of the day in the year it was made, and the fifth digit the year in the decade.

PURPOLARIS Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 All of the above is exactly what I thought but I thought I leave it open to more knowledgeable people. It's the old adage, if it looks to good to be true it probably isn't. Thanks for the replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Logo is wrong, serial is all wrong (never mind the 52 - this serial scheme didn't exist in 1952 and who knows what serial numbers will look like in 2052. It was made on the 909th day of the year.) Screaming fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
