Six grand my friends, six grand...what makes any guitar worth that? Don't tell me it's the wood, the pick-ups, the neck or electronics. My half-brother bought the Jimmy Page signature model about 8 years ago (though probably a different model) he also bought his then young son an Epiphone Les Paul. My half brother is total Gibson, nothing else and he is quite arrogant about it. Yet he said he could not feel the difference in the neck, the Epiphone had a slim taper neck too. The pick-ups? Nothing special. But wait!!! Push pull pots, well I just changed all the electronics (except pick-ups) in my Warmoth. The standrad pots were $3.50, push pull was 3 dollars more I didn't see several thousand pots on the guitar so that can't be it. Oh wait it is a AAA top, but then if you care about that then the worst thing you could do is play it...what if you scratch it?
6 grand for maybe 500 dollars worth of guitar, basically 5500 dollars for the name...
Sorry I just do not see any guitar being worth 6k, worse I have never paid more then 500 bux for a guitar (though with replacing parts the total could be more)...this just gets me though..even if page brought it to my house, set it up, autgraphed it, treated me to dinner and a concert I still wouldn't pay 6k...
. But I did choose my Yamaha APX in a color that goes well with the colors in my living room
