Neat stuff. I would buy "copies" of Gibson and Fender stuff back in the late '80's simply because I couldn't afford the real stuff. Most played pretty well; a few played like crap. I've still got an SG copy (forgot the make) and an Ibanez Les Paul "lawsuit" model. Sold a dead nuts SG bass copy years ago and have regretted it ever since.
I'm surprised at the prices some of these are fetching today. Looks like I'm in the same boat as I was 15 or so years ago; except now it's getting to the point where I can't even afford the
copies anymore!
