Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

hey guys,

i have this Les Paul from 1999 that i bought in Portugal and changed the stock PU's for some Seymour Duncan and Dimarzio.

Got Slash himself to sign it back in 2004, he did the whole RnF'R logo with the Skull and VR 2k4 thing

Looks pretty nice, well preserved with photos to back up the slash signature.

but the thing is i don't play it anymore so i wanna sell it to buy something i can actually use, either another Orange Amp or a Guitar, a Gibson or another Tokai.

well, i'm goin to put it on E-bay this next monday.

i was wondering if you guys knew how much can this baby go for on E-bay these days.

The Color is Cherry Sunburst and it's made in korea

Do you have a photo of him signing it or anything? I don't know how much the Slash autograph is worth - but if I were you, I'd just keep it. It'll be hard to sell as an authentic signature w/out some kind of proof that he signed it or appraisal or something like that.

Re: Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

post the pics of him signing it.....that'll be cool....if you have those pics for proof it will sell quick I'd say.....but don't really know for how much.....if I were you I'd keep it and not play it anymore to keep it preserved, the sweat might damage the writing.....

cheers.

Re: Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

Not to sound macabre, but .... I say keep it and the signing photos stored well until Slash takes the big dirt nap .... then it'll likely be worth something to someone who idolizes Slash (although I frankly don't get the whole Slash infatuation thang ....he's just yet another rock guitarist, imho.....whatever floats one's watercraft, I suppose )

guns n roses slash signed auto custom guitar rare - eBay (item 320242623639 end time Apr-25-08 18:59:10 PDT)

Re: Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

I'd say it would up the final value by $75-$150.

I have a GNR Lies LP thats signed by Axl, Slash, Izzy, and Duff. Bought from a reputable Ebay seller for $30!!!

Re: Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

I say keep it. It might become quite valuable in time. And even then I personally wouldn't sell it. I'd rather keep the signature guitar. Seems way to cool.

Re: Slash Signed Epi Les Paul Standard

i don't understand the point of getting autographs to sell. wouldn't you want to savor that moment where you met your "idol"/a "star". crazy how some squiggly lines could be worth so much though heh (in any case)

but yes, if you really want more money, wait until slash kicks the bucket. that price will sky-rocket.
