Geddy Lee Has Some Insane Guitars up for Auction

[Dirty_Boogie]

As a bass player, he obviously has no time to take his guitars out of their cases and play them. What an incredible collection of near-mint vintage guitars. Gentlemen, raise your paddles, and let the bidding begin.

Copywriter missed by 1 fret on the old Strat. Seems like the burst gets a bit lost on the V, but I’d love to have any one of them. Oh well, should be interesting to see what they go for.

If I could afford it, I would take any one of those guitars! All very cool!

 

[WA Paul]

Now would be a great time to win the lottery!

Well anytime would be I suppose

Gee, maybe I should auction off the old ‘65 SG Special!

“Hey, this is Les’ old SG! I wonder what it will go for?”

“Who’s Les?”

“Just this guy.”

“Anyone ever heard of him?”

“Not really.”

“Ever get used on a record?”

“Just a few commercials.”

“I dunno. Fifty bucks?”

You could totally sell that and get a used Mira... at least.

I’ll give you fifty if it comes with that case. That was one beautiful case!

I had a sweet Core Mira, back in 2008 or so.It was the vintage orange color you have. If memory serves, I sold it to someone in Chicago (wasn’t you, I know).

It was miles and miles beyond that old SG, though I should add that whoever made that case for the Gibson company (Lifton?) did one hell of a great job. I should see if there’s a case label under the door inside the case.

Lifton, Geib, or Stone as a guess.
