Hey guys,

A good friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with a slew of health problems. He has been in and out of hospitals for the past 2 months. His insurance company is only covering partial treatments, so he is forced to pay a ton of money out of pocket...so much so, that these treatments are breaking him. He has no choice but to sell his most prized possessions, his guitar collection. So, his first for sale item is his Gibson 58 VOS Les Paul plain top.

The guitar is in phenominal shape, never played out, comes with all original documents, and comes with the original Gibson hard shell case.

Here is a description of the guitar...

Here is a photo of his actual guitar...


The price of this guitar is $2500, plus shipping and insurance (a must). Local buyers welcome. The guitar is located in NYC.

This is not a scam of any kind, and I would appreciate that only members with a decent post count/old join date reply....unless you can have someone prominent on the forum vouch for you.

Thank you for looking.

Thomas go ahead and buy it, I am gonna get another 59' Historic with more flame on the top

 

Dude, I was just kidding...you are local so it may make more sense for you to buy it...fantastic guitar...if you buy a 59' historic...whoa...more flame is good...

 

Hey guys...I will get you any other info you want. I will ask him to snap some pics tonight. He had an EKG this afternoon, so if he isn't sleeping, I should have them up by tomorrow.
