Here's another vintage beauty put up by Norman's Rare Guitars on eBay. (Item#: 180433734696)
This 1960 cherry sunburst Gibson Les Paul comes with all hang-tags and paperwork intact and in dead-mint condition. The guitar appears to be in pretty good shape too!
The nitrocellulose finish appears unmarked and pristine -- except for a little finish wear on the top edge of the back of the headstock, there appear to be no finish checks, belt-buckle rash or other wear spots from looking at the pics.
And the red pigment in the sunburst paint-job hasn't faded at all. This guitar has probably not seen much light of day in its 49 years -- a closet classic in the truest sense of the phrase.
This guitar doesn't come cheap. And that's an understatement considering the Buy It Now price of $325,000.
But this could be one of the most sound investments one could make, if this Guitar Trader ad from 1979 is anything to go by.
