One of the most lackadaisical attempts at fakery I've ever seen. That wouldn't even fool Chumley.

But hey... "... there is a sleeve for it also."

As if it the idea of a Gibson for so little money weren't enough, ... IT COMES WITH A SLEEVE PEOPLE!!!

It's one of these (https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/showthread.php?79118-Key-Brand-Info) and as everyone has surmised, it didn't come from the factory with that label.

Oow man.... I almost bid $1000 just to be sure nobody would take this treasure away from me.

The zero fret should be the clincher, that was something Gibson has always done. ;)

Yup.

You can clearly see another name was present under the Gibson logo. :))

Sure that is because the seller is a honest deceiver.
