I recieved this in an email.and thought I'd share
The guy doesnt know what he has. He knows nothing about guitars at all.

He has a 1955 Gibson gold top which can be seen here: http://www.specialistauctions.com/auctiondetails.php?id=1473781

He also has a limited edition Fender Stevie Ray Vaughan "Lenny Tribute" Stratocaster, Which can be seen here:

He also has a Gibson 1959 Historic Reissue Les Paul Tom Murphy Electric Guitar which can be seen here:

His prices at this auction are Just Cheap. I think they are worth alot more!!

I would be very wary of this. Nobody sells a 55 gold top for that price. Also the Lenny DID sell for 17 grand as a limited edition. Sounds like a scam to me.

Yeah, the bridge/tailpiece looks kind of screwy. I don't know much about these historic guitars, but some quick googling makes it look like the tailpiece was the bridge in these models. Still, it looks a little too angled in that picture.

And then there's the whole no-headstock photo. I'd just echo what Z said -- be careful.

The "Too good to be true" warning comes to mind.

Besides, if I'm gonna' get it, I'd expect 'em to at least buy me dinner first!
