Is that definitely the real thing (and not a very good copy)?  

In most pictures I've seen the colour looks a lot more uneven, and I don't tremember there being that many little spots and dents all over it.

I have to admit that looking at the first pic, I thought you'd found another "signature" that whetted your appetite and set the juices flowing (hence my possibly confusing posts :lol:)...

Phew, that's good, I knew it looked wrong somehow!  :) 

Comparing with the second pic, the bare patch by the bridge pickup and the wear on the tailpiece look like they've been scr@ped away rather than just worn naturally.  Good job though.

Yep, with some more natural wear it'll look spot on!

Ha ha, I was looking at it thinking that they didn't look like the stairs of someone who would own the original.
Advice worth what you just paid for it.

I thought the first picture was real. But now comparing it to the real thing you can really tell the difference, but it is close.
