WHY ON EARTH is this thing $20,000 when a real 1964 sg special is $5,000. I do not understand at all. A $3,000 guitar with $1,000 worth of upgrades and a signature ends up becoming worth more than the real thing. It boggles my mind

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

thats the way it works

[@spudvader]

Could be a whole bunch of stuff. There is the cost of the people who replicate the guitar, sometimes there is certain things that aren't used anymore for a part of the guitar so Gibson has to ask the original people to make pieces on commission and they could charge what they want, especially if it's for such a rare piece. But mainly because it's a rare guitar, and really Gibson sell there nam e and heritage more than the guitars. Which rockstar hasn't played a Gibson at some point in there career?

Gibson is a bit insane tbh, 20k is outrageous. there is no reason why wood, metal, plastic, and wire should cost that much. Unless that bitch has LITERAL gold inlays with diamond encrusted hardware, it’s a straight rip off for people who have the money to splurge and not give a fuck. Lol

Salt Spring Design He really should go vintage shopping in Nashville once things get back to normal.

Mike Justice you can get a guitar 100x better for $200, I personally don’t hate Trogly, but I really think he shouldn’t give Gibson as much money as he does.

I like the 2008 Les Paul you showed with the knobs that somewhat looked like Fender Telecaster knobs. I have a Black Les Paul in my small 4 guitar collection and I changed the pickups to ones with chrome covers and changed the knobs to ones that were very similar to the ones you had on the 2008. With the new knobs and chrome covered pickups it now looks real slick! It's a Studio so the fact it doesnt have bindings makes it looks so much more slick, especially when its polished up real nice. Anyway that's just something I decided to share. No other reason.

If you've got the brains for making money off of guitars that I think you have, you _should not_ take either of those SG's apart. You _should_ check the truss rods, box them back up (all-the-way back up, both boxes for each), put them in a safe climate controlled place and let their value as a "bookended" pair commensurate for about twenty-or-so years, after which you'll probably be able to finish out your retirement fund with what they're worth then.

@@mikegordon7040 dont know why rickenbackers are a thing, they're horrible basses, double truss rods on an bass with only 4 strings on it? also you got the flimsy bridge thats only supposed to stay there by gravity, and if you want to change intonation you have to detune basically all of your strings to pop the bridge piece off, and they have that stupid triangular break angle... i would not be surprised if some people actually broke a string or 2 on a rickenbacker bass, those triangular spiky bridges look like they can cut through the string cleanly!! On the oldest of rickenbacker basses, the pickups where too low output, so your gain in your bass amplifier was always cranked to 10 if you have a modern 1 youre good You cant adjust the height of the strings individually Also another thing about the rickenbacker basses, the tuners are flimsy small posts, in my opinion it looks like someone tried to cram in actual GUITAR POST TUNERS instead of actual big posts for BASS GUITARS The whole design of the bass guitar (looking at if from a perspective of a bass player) is absolutely one of the worst classic designs you could ever base your bass around on, and i say this with the utmost urgency. Get rid of that thing before someone else catches a whiff of my comment and you might still be able to get $1,000 for it, hell i know i wount pay $1 for it, but i know many moro... i mean people that would

Ooh that would have me so anxious if I unboxed a 20k axe and the pickup fell out! 😱 You sound happy though man, can't wait to hear both the guitars and the bass amp. UK
