mine says "Gibson" on the trust cover. I looked up the serial number and its from 1991 and made in Korea. I gotta say after I cleaned it up and replaced the control nobs (they didint work) it sounded absolutely amazing. even comparable to a gibson les paul standard. the guy I bought it from even gave me a hard shell case with it and 4 pairs of Ernie ball super slinkys! best 150$ iv ever spent.
