A few moments ago I read the VARIAX entry under Guitars and Amps section on this forum and saw the link to TradeTang.com at the foot of the entry and followed it to see what would come up. I was astonished to find, amongst other things, a guitar offered fro sale at little over $300 purporting to be a Gibson L5. I have long hankered for one of these and know that they normally sell for £5000+. I studied the details and the pictures which clearly show it to be a Gibson, made in te USA. I may be a very cynical and suspicious individual but at $300 I doubt this come from a Gibson factory or from the USA.
Does anyone have any knowledge of this organisation and how they can be offering badged instruments at the prices they are advertising?
