Guitar
Note: Please do not call and hassle this seller unsless you are seriously interested in buying the guitar (I've gotten some feedback from CL sellers about some of my readers bugging them with unreasonable requests).
Regular readers are probably saying - is Jim really highlighting a Five thousand dollar guitar - has he lost his mind? But here are the facts: this is a 1957 Gibson ES-175. It has two of the original first year issued PAF pickups. It has the original case. It looks to be in very good or possible excellent condition. The seller says they are the original owner (well their grandfather was a t least). All that bodes well for a good purchase.
Now considering that you could call every vintage guitar store in America and not find an original 1957 Gibson ES-175 for less than $10K - this looks like a pretty good deal.
Of course it also could be a scam - so "Let the Buyer Beware." Make sure you khow what you are doing.

- 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...
- 1959 Stella Faux Ivory Stripe Acoustic In Ne Philly For $50
These are unique and fairly rare - it seems most of them got thrown inthe trash a long time ago - but if it is in decent shape these are cool little guitars. All Ivory blonde paint with faux tiger stripe - neat little Stella by Harmony made form...
- 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...
- Gibson Sg Standard W Vibrola In Seattle For $600!!
Good Lord!! Look at this beautiful SG for only $600. To me this looks exactly like the original 1968 SG Standard with the Vibrola - pretty much the Holy Grail of SG's. I can't tell if this one has speed knobs or the...
