Title: $75,000 Gibson ES-335
Post by: Chito on May 17, 2006, 12:01:38 AM

This is for those who have a little "extra" money to spend.

"There were 21 ES-335's made in Cherry in 1960, the first year of cherry 335's. How many were stoptail pieces I am trying to find out... This is an incredibly rare guitar, more rare even than a blonde finished ES335 of any year! There were 50 natural 335's in 1958, 71 in 1959 and 88 in 1960... Blonde examples should no longer be the standard by which pricing is set on original Dot Necks!"

Price: $75,000.00

That's right. And I bet you would sound so much better than me playing the $75K guitar.
