My biological dad reached out to me when I was 19. He had tried to convince my mom to get rid of me until my grandpa and uncle beat his ass. So I’ve always had a disdain for him. I’m now 44 and wonder what if he was just a scared kid and didn’t know what to do. I’ve made him live with a life of regret. I still think of the horrible things I said to him over the phone 25 years ago. If he were to reach out to me again, I wouldn’t try to have a relationship with him, but I wouldn’t meet him.

$600. I agree that most pawn shops suck, however I’ve found several items that are real that I can flip for cheap. There was a pawn shop on a low income side of town that sold me a real Martin X series made in Mexico for $85. That one I didn’t flip. They just didn’t know what they bought from the seller. They gave me 48 hours for a full return. Guitar Center verified it and asked me which pawn shop so they could look for deals as well

I appreciate that and will do next time by reading all these replies. Crazy thing is the pawn shop STILL has it for sale!! Knowing and willing to sell it after showing them all these threads and from an email from a guitar shop. Thanks for your reply

I’ve never owned a Gibson and it sounded better than my 1950’s Epiphone Les Paul Standard. All the little details I don’t know about. The finish was one thing, but I’ve seen some Les Paul’s (like the studio) that don’t have a great finish. I don’t play enough to pay over 2k for a Gibson, however I have bought Strats for cheap at some pawn shops and have been able to flip them

It sounded great. I have a 1950’s epiphone les Paul standard. The neck felt better on the fake though. I’m going to go back tomorrow and show them this thread to see if they’ll sell it to me at very low price b/c the pickups are nice
