Here's yet another out-to-lunch ebayer who thinks he has something wild. Just where do these poor souls come from???
The guy is offering what is just a regular honey burst LP Standard from 1998, mind you left handed is a bit on the rare side in this finish, but no big deal. For example Centre City Music has a variety of new LH Les Pauls including I think a honey burst Standard, no sweat.
Canuck Lefty and I both noticed this for auction on ebay a little while back from somebody in the Ottawa Ontario area, it went for around 1200, that's reasonable. The guy who bought it is now offering it and thinks it's worth 3500+ ???? What is he smoking???
He claims to have spoken to someone at Gibson and makes it sound like someone there is backing his claims about this guitar. Is it possible somebody at Gibson would mislead someone THIS MUCH? Jesus H for something in the area of 3500 you could grab one of the two Historic LH '58 reissue LP figure tops that Gruhn has...
I'm tempted to email him to let him know he is seriously mistaken, but should I even bother?... I mean it's one thing when somebody is totally out of touch, but it seems even weirder to me when you have someone like this who sort of has half his brain up his *ss. Could he really be this confused or it he just blowing smoke and hoping he can con somebody???
