Are we looking at the same pictures? The ones that look like a n old asian SG copy? When does a Les Paul Custom ever get mistaken for an SG?

A built up SG from the 70's was refered to as a SG/LP Custom. Check out myspace page and I have a 71 SG/LP Custom there. It was a very cool guitar but only did heavy humbucker sounds ( I know DUH!) at that time in my life I needed a guitar that did both, Strat and Gibson so in came my Kramer. The headstock on my Silver tone looked exactly like a gibson. So I put this huge sticker on the head (it was exactly like this one, still havent found the pictures still looking) and unless someone was really paying attention they would think my SG Copy by Silvertone was a real SG from Gibson.
