Well if you disagree with the price I understand, but please don t pay too much attention to it and read on. BUT I can assure you it will be worth a million one day. I really don t know what it is worth now! I ve seen some big money trade for guitars that were so inferior
But I will listen to any serious offer so please take no offense to the starting number. Unless you want to secure it. BUT YES I WILL OF COURSE ACCEPT LOWER BIDS
I have never come close to running accross another early Fender Stratocaster in this condition and color. Experts who have been doing this for more than fourty years concur. Without a doubt one of the best stratocasters in the world for the collector. So if strats is your thing, make your best offer, cause this is a once in a lifetime guitar.
SIMPLY PUT ONE OF THE RAREST GUITARS OF ALL TIME. If people pay for cosmetic like curl and pearl and color, well it doesn t get better than this.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT IN 1955 Custom Colors strats were not offered in catalogs, but on a verbal basis or upon request. There may be no more than a handful in the world in this color and condition if that many. By contrast, they made at least 1500 bursts. a good chunk are very plainly figured or outright plaintops.
I ve owned it for a few years and had the pleasure of playing it twice. It belongs in a museum really. Most people concur on that.
Without a doubt also the best rarest and most beautiful guitar I have offered for sale on ebay.
This is a one week auction. ...

She is a 100% ORIGINAL 1959 Les Paul Standard...THE REAL DEAL. No repaired cracks or other red flags. This is a players 59 and she has the battle scars to prove it. If you want a CLEAN 59 then she is not your girl but if you want the TONE that most people can only dream about this guitar has it in spades - which is why she has been played so much all these years! Besides the filled holes on her butt where the Bigsby was attached and a pro refret, all else is ORIGINAL. I will be happy to answer any and all specific questions regarding this guitar by seriously interested parties. I will also provide specific pictures upon request. no tire kickers please!! This is a real auction for a real 59 Les Paul with documented provenance. If you don t intend to purchase this guitar please don t hassle me or make bids that you can t back up financially! It will be obvious to those that look into the VG article who I am, and hopefully that, along with my perfect Ebay record will give those people that are serious about this instrument the confidence to bid or proceed with contacting me about this instrument.
