It says Gibson but thats 100% bullshit.. maybe a Hamer or something.. i dunno. Solid guitar though. Just needs some TLC on its looks. Comes with a hard case. Headstock cracked years back, had Rufus fix it up, never been a problem since. Old school drop in tuners on it aswell if you dig that sorta thing. - Tue, 19 Jun 2007 6:36pm

no serial number on the guitar and the Gibson decal is cracked. it might be a gibson with a new paint job.. but i'm doubtful.
located in Duncan - Wed, 20 Jun 2007 1:18am Edited: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 1:18am

the strap knob was on the back where the neck meets the body, the hole's still there as you can see in pic 4. i moved it to the other position just because i liked the way the guitar hung better from there. easy switch if you want to move it back.

El Degas you say? havent head that one yet. I'll have to look into that. great guitar like you said though - Wed, 20 Jun 2007 2:34pm

What kind of pedals are you looking for?

I've got a ton to get-rid-of... and I'm always looking for cool, new guitars... I think this-one qualifies. - Wed, 18 Jul 2007 7:31pm

Hey Derek, if you do decide to trade this baby in, i highly suggest you support a mom and pop shop like guitars plus, instead of L&M. The owner is extremely fair with trade in value and is a really good guy. - Sun, 29 Jul 2007 7:41pm
