and that's why I painted with splatter to compete more as practice and if it's one of the ones I made, I would tell you that they really have six. my signature in japanese oh, that too, yes, that says movie in japanese, are you sure you're okay? So this is what you once did right, it certainly looks like Wario and what's interesting because this was one of the ones I used as practice in the first movie. It bothers me from 1 to 10. I remember this. I know when you were doing this. Yes, this is definitely one to return.

OK. It definitely works. Thank you. I appreciate it. I am deeply impressed. Here we go. It was quite surreal. And? your best price with us, well all things considered, I'm going to say 10,000, let me give you a grand for it. I mean, I have to make some money. 9000 Phil Collen played it, now let me give you 8,500 dollars. I'll do it right, honey, I'll meet you right there and we'll do some paperwork. That's ok. Thanks, a guy came in with a Gibson Les Paul that he claims is from 1969, a lot of the original parts have been replaced, so I called my friend Jesse to see if people will still want this guitar after all this work.

We have a Les Paul and he's not sure what year it is and he doesn't know anything about it. Great, this is a neat transition model, it's a hobby. from '68 or '69 some of them had a one piece mahogany slab like this, they have been painted and it is said it was probably a gilt top which is a shame but they took the finish off this will change here and added that's had a lot of things done to it, we should probably plug it in and make sure that with all these things that's been done to it that it works, make sure it doesn't catch on fire, yeah, make sure it doesn't explode, yeah, yeah, the first 68 are retained. pretty high regard, they are built almost identical to the late 50's Les Paul construction style, they are a bit

rare

, you don't see them, they often have their own almost cult following of those

guitars

, let's see what makes it here, yeah we actually have a pretty decent sound, the guitar man's guitar actually sounded pretty good, it seemed like a pretty decent guitar had a nice neck shape, the weight was right, it was nice, so what do you think Are these worth 100% original? condition six to seven thousand dollars obviously a lot of things have been done to this the finish is kind of a marvel it puts it well on what we call a player grade guitar meaning you have a vintage guitar that is I'm not going to offer a vintage price so that the guys who actually play and stuff can afford it and not worry about getting it out and getting over it and that kind of stuff, so they're kind of sought after actually for that, it's okay if it was. there hanging on the wall, my tent and my puppy, whether it's like 3500 dollars, probably what I would say too, the guitar is really worth it, thanks buddy, I appreciate it, take care, nice to meet you, thanks for showing me the modifications on the guitar .

It doesn't bother some people from a businessman's point of view. I want to leave them as clean as possible if it's especially something I'm going to sell or use as an investment. I have an old guitar that was custom made or my mother is fine, Peggy. Eames, who's in our gang comedies, really cool, well yeah, he was our gang for years until he came on TV, so they were the little scoundrels, right, and this was your mother's guitar, yeah, a Gibson Peggy one of a kind, when was she? the little scoundrels are arguing that they were just forming in 1925, she won a contest with her trip to Hollywood to try out for our gang, so she joined the group arguing while they were still making silent moves, this was one of she. discussing movies watching the world she's here okay those are some cool pictures our gang was one of the longest running film series in

history

attracted people of all ages even though it featured kids fun enough to The director used a trick: he explained the scenes as carefully as possible and then filmed the children while they were playing, performing their lines, so if you have any photos of her with the guitar, oh yeah, okay, here we go, this is where she starts. played guitar when she got too old to be in our gang started performing on stage singing dancing wanted a guitar to perform went to Gibson probably one of the first S J superjumbos Gibson did really well the bigger guitars she is so you know what year you bought the guitar.

People saw this and said it's from 1938. I mean literally Gibson guitars, even from the beginning when her company was called Gibson mandolins, they used the best woods, the best construction. I don't see many pre-war Gibsons anymore, you just have most of the ones you bought, they were bought by professional musicians and they beat them to death, yeah, when the kids started coming, it stayed in the case, I mean it was It looks in absolutely excellent shape, so what do you want to do with it? I'm looking for a value of 75 thousand. Okay, a pre-war Gibson is a

rare

find.

I mean, I've paid up to ninety thousand dollars for it, give me something here and if it's a real 1938 Gibson Super Jumbo, it could be worth a ton, do you mind if I call someone, take a look at it and be really cool? I'm going to go give someone a jingle. I will be back. We have a very old Gibson potentially from 1938. Wow. that's an early, early, well, if it's a 38, it's a Super Jumbo, it's the first year they made these and it became one of the most famous Gibson guitars that everyone has played and recorded with young Lihue's super jumbo , so to have a first year. the production is very important, the 38 superjumbo is one of the most iconic sounding guitars out there, it was loud, it had very nice and smooth bass, they even made a reissue of the 38 the first year because it is a very important guitar, snap.

It's 1938, sure, it has a D in the letter and it was only used in 1938, so it's okay, it's a Super Jumbo which is cool, the custom work on it makes it really cool. Who was she? Peggy Eames, my mother started in our gang. silence and from there she went to vaudeville when she surpassed our gang, that's incredible, our gang was great, but she's not very well known, you guys have other concerns with the guitar, uh no, I think you covered everything except that big one, what OK? This is probably a $40,000 guitar. I'll give you $45,000 for the guitar.

Well, my intention was for the money to be used as a down payment so I could escape from the cabin, call it Peggy's cabin. My asking price seventy five is really where I still want to stay at this. There are very few people in the world who have enough money to spend on an original 1938 guitar. You passed it on to the few guys who buy custom ones. It could take me years to sell something like this. That's what I can do. I mean, I'd pay $45,000 if you were the ultimate collector, are you interested? That's all. I am not the ultimate collector. 65 would probably convince me.

I'll go to 47. I take all the risk after that, you know? man, I think I'll hold on to it a little longer, okay, if you change your mind, I'm here, okay, I appreciate that there's a lot more involved here than money, the heirloom part is very strong, maybe during a reunion familiar once. One year in Peggy's cabin and it would be like a monument. A guy came in with an Ibanez guitar from the 1970s and it's still in pretty good shape, so I asked Jesse to come give me his opinion, man, what's up? Come on, we brought you a nerd guitar, well after the 70s, Ibanez was a little musician, so they called it that, what do you need to know?

I just don't know much about Ivan, this is me, yeah, well, you know, Ibanez is a good company, you know? Steve Vai uses Ibanez. Jerry Garcia is known to wear Ibanez. They have a lot of big name artists that use their stuff a little bit associated now with a little bit more metal. There are very well made guitars that they had. like in the musician series in the more difficult series, the musician was like the worker's guitar guy and then the artist was a little bit fancier. Really similar guitars in design, but you could see that the artists had bindings and they had this inlay.

It's called the Tree of Life, which is like vines and leaves that come with them and stuff like that. Today, Ibanez remains one of the best in the guitar world. They are used by thousands of guitarists. They have always been good and consistent. The guitar company had many interesting design features in these two men, such as the neck design through the piece of wood that the neck is made of, which runs all the way around the body. Many people think it makes the guitar hold up better. Do you mind if I pick it up absolutely, yeah, that's cool, cool, little guitarist, so how much is it worth?

Well, you know, the artist series of these will go up, didn't you know the three, four or five thousand dollar range, the musician series? There's a good collector's market for these and those things, so clean they're probably around that, you know, twelve hundred dollars depending on options, but the knobs are turned. Ibanez made a very similar knob, but it had a small rubber piece that looks like this. Had a little repair or something, this one and the condition it's in, you know, it's got a little crack there and all I would say is you probably wouldn't do it for 750 bucks or something, yeah, I'm over that, it's good man. well, I appreciate you coming, okay, Corey get the guitar, a musician will buy it, it's a good guitar, plays great, sounds good, there are fanatical Ivan collectors out there 750, okay, we won't give him 750 , that's what we can sell.

It's because I'll give you I'll give you 500 dollars man a little more than that plus 6 it's very rare that someone comes and asks for 600 dollars when something is worth 750 I mean that throws me off my game are you okay how? around 555 you're like a 1 yeah I guess okay cool
