I think the genuine Korean made Epiphones are ok. My ex bandmate has the black custom and it sounds and feels great. Only prob is that fella never maintain so fungus appeared everywhere mad.gif

Hello Herru,
Thank you for writing. Epiphone has no record of using a “LU” serial number prefix for any models. Thank you for the inquiry.

Best regards,

well the seller now is taking pre-orders for more of the same, and then going to indo to collect them.

and the best thing is hes contradicting his story.

These LU guitars actually will be deliver from Indonesia to Korea for final finishing ( stiker, cetificate, strap and also epiphone hardcase)


so meaning it should NOT come with the above mentioned as hes smuggling them out from the factory, but somehow its all included...
so how is that done? fake? tongue.gif
