Reply to comment by EnvironmentalAir7013 in My cousin works for Gibson and just built a custom guitar for Elton John by slayez06

think it's his order, that's what my cousin said and it's got his name on the order slip and they really don't make to many 1 off orders. My cousin does racks of the same guitars all the time with custom ones mixed in. you can see the order slip here only thing I hid was the sku to keep people from faking it should it be extremely valuable some day https://imgur.com/a/qAByvfF it's very plan jain but high quality otherwise. I didn't even know he played the guitar but the man is very talented so who knows.

I’m not doubting the authenticity of the guitar, I think it’s dope as hell. But using something anyone can make in excel as “proof” is just silly.

And yes. It’s a band. I’m sorry that your………extraordinary attempt at cleverness couldn’t amount to more than putting quotes around my username and then some emoji. It makes absolutely perfect sense. Thanks for all your help.

I'm going to be candid, I have no clue what some of the things on that invoice say or mean. You can see the same invoice hanging in the body of the guitar and when combined with the other photo's I shared.. yea not sure how you would fake a guitar manufacturing facility and have people put on Gibson shirts.. trust me it's not worth the effort for internet points... especially when I have already made the front page ... twice.. But as a double down bonus... here is Maranda Lamberts + another factory shot! https://imgur.com/a/uYwyRKh

I’m going to be candid, you’re responding to the wrong person. I WILL SAY AGAIN I DO NOT DOUBT THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE GUITAR.

I was merely commenting on how easy it could be to make up a fake invoice.

(Not worth the internet points they say, while they argue with one of the people not calling out their post.)

wasn't arguing with you but fair enough, I wrote it for anyone else reading it thinking the same thing. In my experience 20 people think something for every person that says something especially on the internet
