Title: Les Paul Bass on Pawn Stars
Post by: Grog on July 18, 2014, 07:02:31 PM
Yesterday, I was watching the new episodes of Pawn Stars & noticed a Les Paul Bass in the background.............

A few months ago they featured a Les Paul Professional on the show. Rick was rather puzzled by it, thought it was modified. Even after they called in Jesse from Cowtown Guitars to evaluate it, they didn't have all of the facts straight. At least these low impedance models are getting a bit of exposure on TV after 45 years!

I was there back at the end of April and fondled that bass.

I knew you were going to ask.  I really can't remember.  Was high I think around $1,700.  Wasn't interested so didn't pay attention.
