Doesn't she look nice ???

I dunno... 3 piece cap, the inlays don't look to be done too well with filler around them, some of the frets look like they need work. If you want a guitar to keep and sell on later then maybe, but I would rather a new Tokai than that particular one.
I had an 81 LS50 and they're nothing to get excited about. My LS200 though, is!!!

Just my 2c!
 
Not too sure what the :roll: eyes were all about there buddy!

I can see filler on every visable inlay on the 6th picture down. Can anyone else see this?
 
Yeah I see it Ste. It's actually black, RF. Are you expecting to see white filler?

I personally hate the 3 piece body, or at least the very visible joins.

Another thing. Why does the headstock look brand new?
 
Yes, nice guitar. I don't like the 3 piece body either but others obviously feel different. There was a thread recently about current build quality which focussed on bad tuner alignment. Looks like things were no different back in '78.
 
here are ls80 :

is this store ok ?
 
Way overpriced. By the time you add shipping and import tax you'd be far better off getting a second hand gibson. Maybe even a historic at that price
