One thousand times it's real value. IMO, of course.
Agreed!

Before this recent sale, SRV’s brown Strat, “Lenny”, which by the way was autographed on the back by Mickey Mantle sold for around $400K about 20 years ago. Then shortly after, Clapton’s Strat, “Blackie” sold at a charity auction for $1,500,000.
Personally, I think if Jimmy Vaughn ever sold SRV’s famous #1 Strat, it would break ALL the records.
I got to actually touch it once. 🤠

Another sale that'll be interesting, hopefully in the VERY distant future, is Geddy Lee's 63 Ricky. Buddy of mine from high school has had its identical twin since the late 70's. Not a famous instrument but I played a few songs on it. He played everything Rush ever put out. My God, he could hammer a bass.
Glad to see others yet extant who appreciate talent.
Speaking of guitarists.... Any other Jeff Beck fans out there?

Yeah.. me.
Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.
The guitar was purchased by the owner of the Baltimore Colts. I guess he has a considerable guitar collection. He also has been in trouble in the past for using illegal drugs.
Big Jeff Beck fan here. Love Love at Ronnie Scotts and the live rockabilly set with Imelda Mays band. Saw Beck at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix in 71 or 72. It was just after his album with Going Down came out. Small Venue and I was up front!
Saw Beck, Bogart and Appice at the Berlin Olympic Stadium in 1973, close to where Jesse Owens embarassed Hitler in 1936. They headlined a three day rock festival there. Hard to believe three guys could put out so much music.
Wasn't in the track field at top but in the amphitheater at the bottom of this pic. About four of us pitched our pup tents in the open space near the stage.
Didn't see Hitler there, I think he left early...
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

I saw Jeff Beck live a couple yrs ago. He a was #1 on my list and did not disappoint. David Gilmore would be #2. I've seen Santana 3 times.
My friend fellow fiend...
I hate ya, bro. Green with envy.
Would love to chat all night but Mrs Ah is calling saying "wish you were here". Duty calls. Even though I love flying pigs (and other assorted "animals"), "Wish" is still my favorite. I'll cue that up on the turntable... and I believe I'll have some Cream for afters.
