Details HERE.

I think their estimate may be missing a zero at the end.

I guess it's better than buying Les Paul's personal No.2.

I'd kill for a cookie. I started permanent fasting. Skip breakfast and lunch. Limited dinner. Lost 18 lbs in the last 3 weeks. Almost at my goal of 240.

Been working outside all day every day in this 95+ heat here. ?

Oh. Sorry Steve. Uh ... Christies, guitars, les paul. There. OT. ?

I'd rather have Les Paul's 1951 Fender No-caster.  The guitar has Leo Fender's signature on the rear body and was gifted to Les Paul.  There is a really good photo of Les and the guitar near the bottom of the page here.

Ming will buy it (LP #1) and then give it away for free to every CbB user.

Or to the forum member with the highest post count*.

As a piece of guitar history it's beautiful.
As a guitar it's a bit on the ugly side.

JMO.

Excellent idea.

I'll take my share first if I may.

We do get 50 years each, no?

Which reminds me - have you finished with your turn yet?

I believe I'm next, but be aware I'll be sending them straight back if you haven't scrubbed all the skid marks out of the gusset.
