we've obviously left the guitar industry and joined the fine arts brigade
This thread makes very interesting reading, features many of the 'big hitters' in the guitar world. You can make up your mind by the end of it who you trust and who you don't. Certainly made me question any future vintage guitar purchases, I can tell you.

The fact that this guitar passed through the hands of Music Ground should be the biggest red flag to anyone....and that the only sale avenue still open to a guitar of this value and rarity has ended up on eBay...original/genuine guitars like this, as a rule, change hands behind closed doors before us 'normal' plebs even know about it.
