A piece of history, albeit mucho dinero!

That's Walter Carter's store (longtime Gibson historian). He and his wife worked for Gruhn for years. Lots of nice basses, including more Gibsons than usual, and most are reasonably priced.

Wow....I have the last Kubicki that Phil was building when he died. He also signed his name and dated the pocket.

So, is it worth tens of thousands $$ ??


A friend of mine owns the only Thunderbird that Leo ever built, as a custom order/favor for him.
Even has a custom graphic paintjob. A Leo one-off should be worth bucks. Even has a photo of him with Leo handing it to him.
