I have seen over the years many historics called a " black beauty " reissue when to me they were not the real deal.
so I will put together a list of things that the guitar MUST have to qualify
if anyone disagrees with me - feel free to chime in
1) all mahogany body - no maple cap
2) real Ebony wood from Africa - no Rosewood, Richlite , alternative wood species, or any other bullshit
3) Kluson tuners - absolutely no other type
4) no CS- XXXX type serial number ....... only xxxxx type
5) 2 or 3 humbuckers
6) mahogany neck
7) mahogany must be actual south American species regardless if it grown elsewhere - not any of the false african alternatives
8) solid body without weight relief holes
9) no fancy custom embellishments such as alternative colors , sparkles , engravings etc ...... standard Black finish only .
