What...?

I think this is rather obvious even if you are a novice when it comes to Gibson stuff. From this headstock alone: 1) Wrong headstock outline 2) Wrong split diamond inlay 3) Wrong tuners 4) Wrong truss rod cover label (bound headstock for a Standard?). 

Had prompted the seller to be more upfront with the listing- no reply. Expected. All the best to the buyer who will be paying good money for something that might be possibly worse than a Chinese knock off. Buyers - you need to make more effort in knowing what you are buying. It's the cyber age, plenty of stuff out there to help you out with this. Seller - please be more upfront with your stuff, if you can't, then don't sell, it's not worth the (legal) trouble. If you are acting on someone's behalf, do re-think.

I'm not the after-market police, but I do not wish for a fellow guitar enthusiast to be duped especially this easily. There are dishonest people out there, the least we can do is to look out for one another.
