GUEST,Duane Kasuga Guitar (66* d) RE: Knockoffs versus Counterfit. 27 Sep 10


I recently found out for certain that my Gibson Les Paul was a counterfiet Gibson. The difference between a knockoff and counterfit is the name that is displayed. Kasuga as well as others made Knockoffs, but the Kasuga name was on it vice Gibson etc. Mine has a Gibson Name on it so it is Counterfit and I purchased it back in the early 80's in the philippines. When in doubt go to the manufacturer website. According to Gibson, true Gibson guitars (electric or acoustic) come from one of two plants and they are both in the U.S. I also own a Kasuga T-613 12 string which is a very nice instrument.
