I'm surprised Gibson has not sued Eddie VAn Halen For the gibson tag on his partscaster, they've sued or have tried to sue everyone else how seem to to be making anything that even comes close to looking and playing like a Les Paul. Remember the Paul Reed Smith episode????

Copyright infringement, HUH? :?

Hi guitarman0128: erm, I've had a search but can't find the guitar you're talking about.

For the less Van Halenly knowledgeable amongst us, could you post a picture of the item in question, please?

Cheers - C

other than the fact that the webpage states the decal on the headstock, i don't see it. it may be just my computer screen. i can't find any other pics though. apperently, eddie claims himself that he had put the decal on, so that to show that it may look like a strat... it's a gibson in it's sound.

Hi Rob: thank you for that! Darned if I can see it either, but if Eddie says it's there then I guess it is.

And anyone who's read the rest of this thread knows it shouldn't be!

Though if the only evidence is those photos, well then since a thing has to be proved in court I guess there's an explanation right there to guitarman0128's question as to why Gibson wouldn't pursue it. (Amongst other reasons...)

Cheers - C

PS: What an enjoyable thread! And how nice not to be the grumpy one laying down the law on this stuff for once!

Take a look at the first album cover and live shots of the black and white partscaster before the red was added. it's there.
