I'd no idea they were worth that much.

Maybe, now. .... And maybe... not for long.

What are they really sold for? I dunno. We've been seeing $7+-11k early-mid 70s asking prices, too. Also, CBS Fenders have crept up there.

Go figure, inflation plus time. But we may have reached an inflection point or bubble.

Luck for me too rare, nothing I'd consider in lefty. We'll see. Keep your powder dry.

Beautiful, stock example.

Tom. Do you find these brighter than a comparable humbucking-equipped Les Paul?

I know of an early '69 LPC, all original in fine condition that went for $22K last year, from a guitarpusher in my country.

"Kind of redundant to have three Les Pauls."

What!? I don't think so, typed he who has four.
