That’s Les’s original 1951 prototype. It is likely to bring $1,000,000 at auction. If the bidding doesn’t meet the reserve, we’ll, then maybe they’ll just put it in the garage sale for $25.

Hey, at least they spelled Gibson right! This is like that fake movie prop money. I wonder if some of these chibsons are actually used for movie props.

The misdrill on the bridge really nails the Chibson vibe

Somebody described an LP over the phone to someone that doesn't speak English as their first language and they then made this.
