Was you selling the LP that Slash got for you? It even has his note on it...

[@papasmamas1]

Im not into his music, but its great listen him talking about guitars.

[@jerrymorganjr]

It’s actually the second burst. The first known 58 burst had a 3 piece top.

[@Slashgoldtop1992]

There’s a photo of it?

[@EverettVernon72]

I think slash owns both

[@lucak.3882]

Does anyone know why he is selling all of his equipment?

[@sergior8588]

He is buying a 1960 Gibson

[@bb_lz9790]

Maybe he's moving into a Tiny House... Honestly, I had to google Richard Fortus to find out who he is... Nugent just sold off a bunch of stuff too. Maybe it's because they were all out of work last year and can't pay the bills, maybe it's because they were all out of work last year and looked around and saw how much unused stuff they have or maybe it's because used gear prices are at ridiculous levels and they want a piece of it.

@@sergior8588 yes when I last saw him in a live chat with someone like a Pete thorn or Dave friedman he implied he was having a clear out to get something really really special . I would never sell that awesome guitar Slash gave him though

[@samsungsquier2008]

Great

[@deliciousgrace3460]

What a collection! If I had the money, the one for me would be the James Trussart Rusty DeVille.

[@Locoandchooch]

Why would he sell the 58RI? Especially since Slash wrote on it, to him

[@snapascrew]

How does he know his burst was the first ever? 😮

[@jerryyeaaah15]

one off the first apparently according to the serial number

[@brotherdave8691]

HONKY TOAST

[@MrVanalen]

Tax bill?bet Slash was made up after all the trouble he went through to get him the Guitar?would you ever part with a hand signed slash guitar. And using slash name to help sell his gear It’ will most likely be charity?

[@Nghilifa]

I know right? No, he's financing a real 59 that Joe Bonamassa hooked him up with I believe.

[@kevinlane7555]

I know how annoyed I get when Gibson screws up my custom one of a kind guitars

[@MoonshineSazerac]

'A nice thought'? I'd be fucking livid with that fucking awful fretboard. Jesus, so far none of his gear seems worth buying, I'm quite surprised.
