This guy has been advertising on CL and Kijiji for weeks now. At first he called these Rickenbackers, now he has changed his tune to "vintage". These are apparently made here in Canada.

This one is pretty bad, but pretty blatant. Anyone know anything about these?
Anyone heard of Raven Guitars? Baaad copies.

Looks more like Chinese ****.
Re: Anyone heard of Raven Guitars? Baaad copies.
Used to be Raven and Raven West in the 60s-80s, but they disappeared. It seems they are back now. Either made or imported just for Canada. They sure do look like imports. The buzz is that this Raven is not the same Raven of the 60s-80s.
Disappointing that this type of theft continues.

I've seen so many of those spaghetti TPs that I don't even like real spaghetti anymore. . .
If I see many more awful FG 330 copies, I'm going to start to react negatively to the real thing, just like having seen so many Hondo II Les Paul copies makes me react negatively when I see a real Les Paul. . . .
BLECH!!!!

I have one of those at home branded "Harlem".
I'm just waiting for the right moment to smash the living daylights out of it and set it on fire.
I've got the video camera..... just need an audience!
