    Anyone own any Rock Star/Celebrity Owned and Played Instruments?

    I own Brad Whitford's Mary Kaye Stratocaster. I'm a huge Aerosmith fan and contacted his guitar tech via Facebook on a long shot seeing if Brad would want to sell any of his guitars. To my amazement he wrote back, "sure, let me ask Brad." The next day he asked if I wanted Brad's Mary Kaye from...

    NGD - Joe Perry Aged and Signed Les Paul. Are the Signed ones “better?”

    I have an aged Joe Perry 1959 and just bought an aged/signed. It’s never been played and my aged has been played a ton so it will be a while before I can truly a/b them.

    Importing a guitar into the US with a Rosewood fretboard?

    I bought a Gibson Custom Shop guitar from a shop in the UK. They said it's going to take weeks to get CITES permits and whatnot. Is this true or could they just ship it to me normally? I live in the midwest USA.

    Is Joe Bonamassa's old 1959 Les Paul "Spot" really that great of a guitar?

    I saw he sold it not too long ago and it was bought by Matt from Matt's Guitar Shop in France. Matt always posts about how its the best 1959 Les Paul ever and even made "Spot Replica Pickups." I guess my question is, if it was such an amazing guitar then why did Joe sell it? He has 10+ original...

    Joe Perry 1959 Aged Les Paul price?

    Hi all. I've been looking to buy a 1959 Aged Joe Perry from 2013. There are several for sale overseas on Reverb, but I only want to buy in the US. They don't seem to pop up often in the US - maybe one or two a year at the most. Does anyone have an idea of what a fair price on one would be?
