No idea but it's not an Alembic and the logo on the scratchplate looks like it's been photoshopped rather than engraved into the plate.

The Pan company sent us a guitar about 30 years ago and asked us what we would do to improve it. We sent it back to them with a list of points to improve. They incorporated some of the suggestions, and decided to market it with our name, much to our surprise. These guitars don't have anything do with Alembic, other than the hopeful use of our trademark."

Clearly, this was a Les Paul copy, panned by Alembic. 


(I'll show myself out now...)

grrrrroooooooaaaaannnnnn!

Bill, tgo

Does anybody else think the inlaid "PAN"/"PAN" decal on the headstock looks like it used the font also used by the band "YES"?

Yes

Nice.  Very nice.  Howe did I not see that coming?

Clearly you were not wide a wakeman!

It's Wednesday morning and I'm reading this sitting on the Jon.  And da sun is up!

Hilarious! Good one.

It's a little overpriced for a LP copy guitar.

All copies are overpriced in my humble opinion.

But a Squire is still reasonably priced.
