It says its a Epiphone Les Paul Custom Shipping from China.
My only Problem is that the switch is missing in the photos and the price is $1.00! is this Fake.

I'd pass. Just don't seem right to me. Looks like the switch has Styrofoam covering it. Try checking out the serial number.

The location of the item is "china China". If you do buy it, please do everyone a favor and don't come back and say you were ripped off. LOL

There are tons of these guitars floating around the "Bay". Most of his high feedback rating comes from beads and shoes. LOL 99% of these guitars are fakes.

Run from that one. I wouldn't trust any guitar coming out of China with all the fakes being made there. JMO 8) Mike

Most would consider it a fake, however if it was made where the guitars that Epiphone gets from overseas is then it would be real...just not blessed. If customs sees it they may grab it.
