Sir so 89 or 79? naguguluhan padin ako sir salamat nga pala sa replies.
wala pang ganyang truss rod cover nung 1979 dati gibson-like trc pa. then nagkaron ng issue nung early 80s (kaya tinawag na lawsuit era) so yung greco, tokai, burny, etc started changing the trc.
sa greco, late 79 lumabas ang super real series na replica ng real gibson LPs pati trc then nung nagpalit ng trc naging mint collection na pero ang visible difference lang is trc. sometime late 80s i believe naging korea na yung iba.
sa mga pics na nakita ko ng mik ang common is hindi braided wires and may black paint sa loob pag LP. not sure sa SG.
a friend told me na yung 70s greco are copies ng 70s gibson while yung super reals are copies ng original gibsons. so pag may nakita kang stock super real at reasonable ang price go get it, lalo pag nakita mong 2 piece maple top sya it means di sya low end.
nung second year ng super reals, i believe, nagkaron ng upgrades kaya yung lower models ng super reals the year before ay naging super power meaning dati silang super real the year before. hindi yata maple top ang super power.
also please note na may mga overlapping like super real na may parts ng 70s or super power na may mint collection trc.
from memory kaya plus or minus 1 year hehe
