Help Id'ing the Old Les Paul Copy

[beattytg]

Hi:
I bumped into this old LP copy. You can see there is nothing on the headstock but there are stickers on the back of the neck. Some research I did made mention that these were sold by Sears in the mid to late 70's and may have been from Korea. Anything you can tell me would be appreciated. I am impressed with its tone and playability.

Hi beattytg.

I don't know much about your LP copy so far but I can tell you the gold stickers are associated with Korean production. Chances are good it was either built by Cort or Samick but I'm not sure which company used the gold stickers. I think your mid to late 70's date is probably accurate.

I'll get back to you once I have a chance to research the guitar a little deeper.
