Re: Wanna buy Robert Fripp's 1959 Les Paul?
It's sad when guys like Mr. Fripp have to sell off treasured instruments because of crummy record companies and their non-payment of royalties.
 That LP looks awesome. I'd bet Mr. Frampton has laid hands on that as well. The Strat is awesome...pre-1966, by the look of the headstock. He listed it as a '66 though...didn't they have the jumbo headstocks then? BB

Re: Wanna buy Robert Fripp's 1959 Les Paul?
wow steve marriots 59
I saw steve about a month before he died, lived within about 10 miles of where I did... Anyone fancy getting in touch with them just to see how much theyre going for...??  In fact South East Essex seems to be a kinda magnet for musical talent past & present: Steve Marriot Rod Stewart Peter Green Danny Kirwan Rolling Stones (kinda) Ian Dury Dr Feelgood Eddie & the Hotrods Suzi Quattro Im sure theres loads more but Ive just had a total blank...

Re: Wanna buy Robert Fripp's 1959 Les Paul?
it says on wikki hes married to toyah wilcox - she does loads of work on uk tv and must still be receiving royalties herself - surely she could save the guitars...
