Gibson SG Les Paul Custom

Back to guitars again, sorry we had to with this amazing 1961 Gibson SG Custom. Firstly, we have to tell you Mary Ford owned the guitar originally and she’s the wife of Les Paul. Thus, this guitar had a part in many Paul and Ford top hits! Therefore, the owner requested $250,000, but settled for $90,000.

Next up, is one of the craziest moments in the shop’s history. When a seller brought in diamonds, Rick was seemingly prepared. He asked for the receipt and where he got them, which the seller provided. Then Rick settled on $40,000 for the diamond earrings. Unfortunately, the day after, Rick found out his new purchase were obtained illegally, they were stolen diamonds! While the man was prosecuted, Rick sadly, lost his money. I guess that’s the risk a pawn shop owner takes daily.
