I was roaming around YouTube a week or two ago and I saw someone that was playing a '54 or '55 and for the life of me, I can't remember who he/the band was? Had to be someone I liked from my era?

Went to the Orlando International Guitar & Music Expo this past weekend and there was a lovely '54 there:

I don't know how I missed this! Either it had already sold or it wasn't out while I was walking around! That is really clean -- looks like a new guitar. Any idea what they were asking for it?

The Neil Schonn on was a 61 SG/LP Custom. They wanted way too much, solely because it was associated w/ Neil Schonn. I saw one sell on reverb this week for under $17k.

When were you there? I was there on Sunday afternoon. It was at the end of the room to left as you walked-in. I'm not sure how much it was selling for? I was going to ask, but the vender was with someone else at the time.

Yeah, that '61, while beautiful and I would love to have one, was crazy money, exactly as you mentioned; because it was Neal Schon's.
