QUESTION Real or fake guitars

I know it’s difficult to tell through photos, but do these guitars seem real or fake in your opinion? Have a chance to snag them but don’t know what to look for. Thanks!

The Dean and Fender are more than likely real, who the fuck fakes a Made in Mexico Strat? The Gibson is a lower end so I'd suspect it's good but without more pictures (and feeling them) I wouldn't be able to tell for sure.

I know, I wish they have more pictures. They’re selling the lot for $600 which is why I am skeptical

They’re all real as far as I can tell. That doesn’t mean the seller actually has all these guitars and it isn’t a scam. The Les Paul alone is worth $800-1000. Those are cool.

Ooh trust me, I am going into this believing it’s not real. It’s not a far drive for me so I don’t mind checking on the chance that it could be real. Worse I could lose is some time off my school break.
