Hey guys!

I recently came back from a trip to China and picked up this Epiphone Les Paul Custom for around $400. It plays great, feels good in the hands, and overall I'm really happy with it.

However, after spending some time with it, I started wondering if it's actually genuine. I noticed a few details that seemed a bit unusual. One thing that caught my attention is that it has Wilkinson tuners instead of Grovers. I tried searching online, and I found a few posts saying that some Epiphone production batches came with Wilkinson hardware, but I'm not sure if that's actually true.

I'm definitely not an expert, so I'd really appreciate it if you guys could help me figure out whether this Epiphone is real or fake
