Wife yelling, I gotta get. I did findone post on Gibson board about someone having a 2013 genuine LesPaul but the logo was 25% larger. I hope yours is all good too!

 

[Headache]

The more I'm looking into it, the more I am getting relieved lol.

That logo is big! Maybe in 2013 they just wanted to make it bigger! Ha ha ha I saw a thread on thegearpage too about larger logos but we're legit.

It's good to be cautious though, there are a lot of fakes out there being peddled.

Here's the serial number checked out on 2 different sites.

I think it's a real Gibson.

Sorry for the logo confusion my only Gibson silkscreen logo guitar is the Les Paul Junior and is the same size font
as my pearl Gibson logo's

I have watched like 5 of those videos.
Everything on this guitar seems to check out except that logo.
I have taken pictures of all my other Gibson logos...and heck they are different too.

They made a few different logos. Some without dot over "i", some with G closer to tuner etc. All legit.
No scammer would use all genuine Gibby parts and a screwed up logo!

 

[Headache]

I think the telltale sign is the wings on the back of the headstock. None of the cheaters do that part right lol.
I'm going to name this one sasquatch, it's brown, ugly, heavy, and 25% larger in some places lol

 

[Headache]

I just did an image search for 2013 LPJ....
All of them have huge logos lmao!
I should have done that first.

Sorry, late on the vid. Such a shame. That be real: Gibson LPJ 2013 | Reverb

Nice ax. Awesome color.

I'd redo that finish, but that's just me. I did that to my Tribute and I'm thinking about doing it again.

I think it's a nice score, congrats!

This thing was literally made on a Wednesday! Ha ha awesome! It's going to be a keeper!

In my defense, I have spotted a fake or two before. I am glad all is well Headache!

My understanding of Gibson serial numbers, post 1977, are the 1st and 5th numbers are the year. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th the day of the year and the last 4 are the production number. The website got it right as a 2012 and the day, 347, is Dec 12th as that was a leap year. The production number is 410 though. Weird that it is stamped model year 2013?

It was made in December 2012 for their 2013 model year.
