• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Not sure if I'm in the correct section. Mods please feel free to (re)move if necessary.

My '82 standard sleeps and travels in a protector case. A Gen 2 I believe, with the small metal latches.
I understand it's only a cosmetic detail, but coming back from a gig last Friday, I realised the "Gibson" metal plaque/sign on the top, disappeared... whether it fell off on its own, or has been "borrowed", is a mistery...
Does anyone know if it's possible to find a replacement and where? I looked at eBay but with no luck...

Thank you.

WR.

Sorry, latches can be replaced, but I've not seen a case logo for sale.

Perhaps you might consider replacing the case. I like these:

Thanks. Sure looks good. Reminds me of an Airstream!
That said, I'm not replacing the case for just a missing logo...

Was gonna say Ebaty might be your only chance.
Congrats, a lil Krazy Glue will make that permanent.
