Gibson folks - this look legit?

Serial number has been "rubbed off" (WTF?) but pot codes date the guitar as a 76. Someone's offered me this exact guitar in trade for something else. I don't know enough about Gibsons to be able to tell if anything fishy is up.

Not sure I want to make the trade either way - perhaps a few too many alarm bells going off here - just wondering what you guys thought.

Something looks wrong with the headstock and tuners, too. Pass.

This is my most favorite of all time.............It's a dinky old Ibanez that was only made for two years..



Here's a pic of my daughter playing it....


I've never heard another acoustic with so much deep and ritchness...

This thread. What did your daughter playing your Ibanez acoustic have to do with me saying the headstock and tuners don't look right on the Les Paul in the OP?
 
Oh..Ok..Sorry..My mind tends to drift...My fault.....

The word headstock took me there....

I assumed what you meant by the fact that the headstock didn't look right was insinuating that it may have been replaced,or re-glued......

The Ibanez that my daughter is picking had its headstock re-glued....

I was actually alluding that the LP in the OP might be fake.
