[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 556563, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]When we graduated H.S. one of my closest friend's parents bought him a Gibson ES-335TD electric guitar because he wanted to learn to play and another one of our friends had this model. He never learned to play, but loved cleaning and polishing the guitar. Sadly, he died in 1994. Divorced, he left everything to his daughter, who also didn't play it. I've kept in touch with her to tell her stories of her father's crazy behaviors. She finally sold her father's guitar at a Los Angeles auction, where she lives with her husband and three children. She said the bidding was crazy and her walk-away after all commissions were paid exceeded $25,000. My guess is that it went to a collector rather than a player. I'm quite certain that a 57-year-old electric guitar, regardless of make or that it's never been played, would need most of the electrical components changed for the guitar to be playable.
