      It'll be priced at $180K and haggled down to $165K probably.

        I watch this show enough to think he'll price it high enough to where he'll have to keep it (which is what he wants anyway).

          ^ No shit having that Guitar in your store is worth so much... If he does sell it wouldn't you think an auction?

          Fugger should be in the Rock and Roll HOF

            Totally agree on putting it through a high end auction house. I personally wouldn't want that much money just hanging in my store.

              eBay, $0.99 no reserve.
              It's all about the blues-rock chatter.

                why would he be trying to be such a hardass over 2k once you're up that high anyway?

                  You do watch the show, right?
                  I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

                    The Guitar dude he had come in to check it out was in heaven... that really was awesome... wonder if he gets the original pickups with it?

                    Kinda of crazy for the guy to take that guitar to a Pawn Shop... wtf dude spend some time and work at getting the most money out of the dam thing.

                    The dude kinda seems like his tweaking for something... like CASH NOW!!!

                        I don't get it. Your Mary Ford's relative, you got a bonafide 61' Les Paul SG style (that Lester hated) with all the important paper work and you go to a tv show pawn shop.Hmmmmm....

                          +1000 Exactly... what was that joker doing?

                          There is paper work in there with Les Paul bashing Gibson... He should have taking it to Gibson and said you guys want this stuff? ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!!

                            Heh, I love that show. That same guitar expert comes in from time to time, he seems to know his stuff.

                              I dig it too and catch it when I can. On one show, IIRC his guitar expert crushed some dude's hopes and dreams of getting 40K for his les paul. The model year was off by some and it wasn't worth 10% of that.
