Members MrChitlins Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 Can someone splain to me why this $30,000 guitar isn't overpriced by about $28,200: http://cgi.ebay.com/Gibson-Les-Paul-Standard-Limited-Edition-/290515175371?pt=Guitar&hash=item43a40dc7cb#ht_582wt_1139 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jhorne Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 The seller obviously has a serious crack addiction. $500 for shipping is a little on the high side too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gas Hed Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 I've heard of those, yup, serial number checks out. They are rare, kind of like the ring of power, all you have to do is look at the guitar and it plays itself. Well worth 30k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members niceguy Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 hm I don't like the look of those frets. on my Les Paul (and previous Gibsons), the binding covers up more of the frets. still, I'll go ahead and buy it. hell, I'll send him double the payment, cuz it's just THAT kewl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pvwolfgang5150 Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 What's so special about that Les Paul? Sure there were 100 made, but what separates it from a regular 1979 Standard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ten56gibby Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 I'm not really sure that's a legit Gibson anyway. The tuners and top of the headstock look a bit off. But that may be just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Schuyler Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 I'm not really sure that's a legit Gibson anyway. The tuners and top of the headstock look a bit off. But that may be just me. That headstock shape is pretty typical of older Gibsons, is it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members and Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 I never understood the whole "Limited edition" thing anyway. Same with autographed stuff. In a way, with the brand name stuff. Just imagine how many Agiles one can buy with that money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Edge11 Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 no nibs on fret ends= phoney right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Funkwire Posted December 27, 2010 Members Share Posted December 27, 2010 Or it's been refretted. Don't think the brass hardware is original, either...and it's butt-ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
