Topic: JBLP #005 ..... Offers ?

hi, regretably i'm having to sell The Jewel in my Joe Collection, believe it hurts to do so, but i feel i need to sad

This is an original Joe Bonamassa Signature Custom Shop Les Paul Goldtop (The First Original Run from 2008) Most of you out there know of Joe's rise to Guitardom and he is now one of the premier Guitarists on the planet. So these guitars with his own endorsement have now become so rare to the public as virtually all the limited run of those 1st 300 are snapped up.

Here is your chance to own one of the very lowest serial numbers out there that has become available in over 4 years since they were first released.

# 005 has been with me since August 2008 very rarely played, so like brand new, Joe has noodled on it and signed the backplate (but that can be replaced if needed).  i actually contacted Gibson HQ to find out where the first batch was being shipped, and tracked 005 to Wildwood Guitars and had a deposit on it before it got there, i was on the ball LOL

So here it is ..... # 005 is up for grabs


............. Michael

i put it here , cos i couldnt upload it to e bay (didnt know how to do it ? )
all the hardcore fans and collectors are here anyway, you know who you are and know of others who might be interested

Michael, 

I know this is a big heartache for you sad and I just wish I had the money to buy it from you and hold on to it

Hopefully someone here on the Forum will get her and you will know that she went to a good home.  I am not
having a great month myself and reading this makes me like November even less.....thinking of you a lot .

Hi Mike
I perhaps can give it a good home. How much are you asking? I assume it would need to come from across the pond. You can PM me if you like.
Cheers Ron

Michael,

While I don't post much I am on the forum everyday and am the beneficiary of all the positive energy that happens here. I have been blessed in life and am grateful for the gifts both materially and spiritually that I have received. I would not only be happy to share the cost with Spider for him to hold the guitar for you or consider a short term interest free loan if it would mean you could hold onto #5. you have a been a presence here and support not only for Joe but for each other is what this forum has been and is about.

No Problem Spider happy to help in any way I can. Holiday time is a good time to pay it forward. Hope to hear back from Michael on what his thoughts are now that the need has been heard.
