Guitar
Okay, I have to admit I have been on a Gibson kick lately. I've been tracking Specials and SG's all over the place and I actually bought two Les Pauls in the last two weeks. I guess because the prices are coming down due to the crappy economy. Anyway, here is one of these "glossy Cherry" Les Paul Specials with the P90's - it is $550 which may not sound cheap but I see them for $700 + all the time and this one includes a nice hardcase. I am contemplating this one myself but I am really on the hunt for a 1974 Gibson '55 reissue Special which is really da bomb. Sorry but no pic on the listing.
Oh and if that is a "real" vintage aluminumn tailpiece - Wow! I mean some unfinished 1959 Les Paul Jr. owner is gonna hunt you down and jump you in an alley for it.
I know what you are thinking: What happened to Jim??? I thought he was mister $200 vintage guitar..? - well I am still trying to cap my guitar purchases at $1K but so many people ae clearing out their "retirement collections" right now that I am thinking it may be a good time to supplement my wood and metal 401K.
Very few people ever bought a Gibson guitar for $500 and lived to regret it. (Note: That said, I still hate the sound of a PAF humbucking pickup - blech, so bland - give me single coils, Dirty Fingers or P90's anyday.)

- Gibson Les Paul Special In Victoria Tx For $350
This looks like a late 90's or early 2000's Gibson Les Paul Special. The picture is fuzzy but it's probably the lightly finished Mahogany version they sold through MF for $600 back in the day. That bridge pickup has been...
- Vintage Gibson L-6 In Des Moines For $500
Okay, now we all know why these are called the "Midnight Special" right? Come on... children of the 70's.... yes because when KISS appeared on the Midnight Special in 1976 Paul Stanley played a prototype of these Bill Lawrence designed guitars. ...
- Vintage Kalamazoo K-2 Electric - Gibson Made Early 60's Solidbody In Boston For $375
These fly way under the radar - Kalamazoo was basically Gibsons 2nd tier student brand but the components are all the same or similar to the Gibson parts of the same era. For instance these would be original 60's Melody maker single coil...
- 1972 Gibson Sg-i (sg1) In Tampa Fl For $675
These SG-1's always fly well below-the-radar because they don't have the classic SG look - they almost look like Japanese copies - but of course they aren't. It is a real USA Gibson made in Kalamazoo. The mini-humbucker on...

Nice looking Les Paul Special - I've been obsessing over these lately. Something about P90's on a Les Paul that doesn't break your back after a half hour. Gibson Les Paul Special electric guitar - $635 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------...
