W.S. McTier Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 probably the wrong site for this but i can't find any info on the black keys site. it looks like a white sg, but when i saw them live i could have sworn the headstock didn't look gibson/epiphone. if this isn't appropriate wilco forum material, tell me to go away.

Elixir Sue Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 This one? Apparently it's a "lawsuit" Ibanez SG. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
W.S. McTier Posted April 14, 2007 Author Share Posted April 14, 2007 that's it. does that really say ibanez on the headstock. i mean the shield looks different, i guess, but holy crap that script is pretty close. thanks for the help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FourStrongWinds Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Lawsuit! I believe this is an old Ibanez, Gibson sued them at one point Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Those Ibanez lawsuit guitars are really nice. I used to be in a band with someone who had an ES-335 copy and a Fender P-Bass copy. I'm not sure if Fender sued Ibanez, though. I recently saw a Flying V Ibanez lawsuit guitar in a shop. Those banez folks must've been working their asses off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anodyne Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 the lawsuit copies are late 70s - early 80s. they are very nice. vantage made some nice japanese knock-offs around the same time that are VERY affordable. i have a vantage melody maker that plays smoother than my real gibson les paul.
