If I must guess, this guitar will exceed 1 million. Nothing is priceless, but this comes mighty close.
Gorgeous.
that’s a beautiful guitar. Like that with silver hardware.
That triple-pickup Custom looks exactly like mine... and it is my favorite axe (of about 8 that I have). Mine’s a c.2000 and it’s the best playing guitar I’ve ever had. I can get tone and sustain out of that that have people amazed it’s not an e-bow and a synth. Nope, just a great guitar! :)
Black Beauty, indeed.
Thanks for the ping.
I owned a 1976 LPC, black, gold hardware, MAPLE fretboard. Bought it from Southworth for $900 in 1989, sold it for $900 in 1997. Often wondered whether I should have kept it... I suppose the answer is always “yes.”
I just stopped into a small shop in Rockford IL where to my astonishment sat a pristine pair of Altec Lansing studio speakers. The owner bought them from the estate of Les Paul. He had the papers to prove it.
Asking price is $12,000. Plus freight.
