[Laservampire]

Now THAT is a true warhorse! I wish the R9's had that much character...

 

[Gaetano]

It has had a lot of playing, I'm sure it kiks ass!

Wow, stunning.

Sure not very often you see a '59 Burst up for sale and of course always magic
Wonder what the sellers reserve is, but guess it might be in the area of 300.000 $ and maybe even more ...

 

[BrianGT]

Beautiful! There's some serious vibe going on there!

 

[Deftone]

Sweet. But would you really dump $200K+ on it?

 

[Cookie-boy]

Beautiful!

 

[JimmyAce2006]

my guess is that 200K is the magic number. as cool as it is, it is not minty enough to bring top dollar (300-400K). but i believe that if everything the seller says about it being all original, no issues, etc., then it would probably bring close to 200k. can i borrow 200K?

 

[Fletch]

Just placed a bid!!! $32,000!!! Unfortunately I was outbid and the reserve wasn't met. Oh well, maybe next time...

That would be a steal for 200K.

 

[TKOjams]

[Dave1968]

That would be a steal for 200K.

[RCCola]

I wish my uncle had a Burst...

 

[chinbb]

Gibson ought to make a ratfart burst reissue outta this

 

[1965zoso]

that's really cheap

 

[Bluesyzep]

I oughta place a bid just to tell the kids one day that I bid on a real 59' Les Paul. The chance of winning it is about the same as the chance of me paying for it.

Man that's just pure sex right there! That thing has has mojo just leaping out of it! Just glad to see it was played, and played hard. As it should be!

My kids are gonna get my Bloomie one day, and I hope it looks like that!
