$100,000 worth of vintage Gibson Les Paul guitars

There were many, many vintage Gibsons there that many guitar players would sell their first born son just to get. The cream of the crop and best of the best.

Oh, and the Fenders? Of course they were there too.

Vintage Fenders for days...

Yes, I was in the presence of absolute electric guitar royalty.

Was it a magical experience?

For me personally, no.

These guitars are for collectors. You're not supposed to actually play these things regularly. What you're supposed to do is take it out every once in a while, strum the guitar lightly a little bit to make sure it still works, then put it back in its case.

You really need to know something before buying one of these.
