The one on page 27 was his personal concert guitar, right?

I want lot 722 so badly. A No-caster is one of my dream vintage guitars.
It'll go for more than $60k, I'd wager.

Lots of these prices sound really conservative to me. I'd think most of it will go for a lot more.

Yeah, I mean... I would pitch 600 dollars for a sweet old Gibson banjo from the 50's any day. I doubt I can even get an upper tier Goldtone for that much.

My guess is that these are the starting bids.

Yes, I think a Les Paul-owned L-5 or D'Angelico will probably go for 4-5 times the estimation here, not to mention the '52 LP ... I'll look forward to see the auction results ...

This.

Plus how cool would it be to have a Les Paul that was owned by Les Paul.

Gibson gave him a lot of guitars!
