Yes, but none of them would be a 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard ...

Les Paul Standards are very hard to find in original condition. They were the workhorse and got beat up and modded they are very collectable and one kick $@! guitar.

Yeah, that Gibson has been for sale online for quite some time...

This is the guitar from Norms that I think a few of us might want.

Nevin's in Yorktown, I'm in Saskatoon. You'd better be in Regina. Then we'd have a troika of awesomeness.

As for the money, I'm inclined to suggest that anyone who buys that guitar won't ever play it. It's a shame, really. If I had it, I'd take it out and gig with it every night. I'd just tell people it was a reissue or something -- worth a paltry $15,000 or so.

If I had the money I would buy vintage guitars too. I would get things like a broadcaster or a nocaster or a tele custom. Old black guard teles are awsome. They are investments as well as something that you can play with :)

Well said. Guitars are meant to be played, and to be enjoyed.
