OK...

I know there are a lot of knowledgeable music fans here so I thought this might be of interest.

I was watching "Pawn Stars" on SyFy the other night and this guy brings in
Les Paul's '61 SG.
He's Les' nephew and it's verified as authentic.

It's valued at $250,000.

Pawn Stars offers him $90,000 and he takes it!

    Who valued it at $250,000?

    $90k guaranteed against a guesstimate of $250k.

    Perhaps he just needed money quickly.

    Lot of questions need answering before judgement can be passed.

    So that blind people can hate them as well.

    I saw that show too. Its easy for me to say,but I think I would have let it go to an auction instead of taking the 90K,
    There is a lot of R&R history there.

    Oh,it was Les Pauls nephew,but it wasn't Les Paul's guitar. it was his wife's.
