Actually it's not $130,000.00 but $129,999.99 !

Come on now, $130,000.00 would be ridiculous, man.

You know, a few years ago on another board we had a thread with a list of guitars that the Beach Boys played/owned. Nobody knew about this one, I guess. So it's just been added to the list.

Do you think there's enough pictures of the guitar?  Good pictures of the band.  Wonder what song they're playing.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

Be right back, winning the lottery.


I had already seen that picture many times but I had never paid attention to the kind of guitar Carl was playing. It reminds me of the Ampeg Dan Armstrong plexi guitar, which I love, only cooler.

Whoever buys this would be wise to invest in a back brace as well.

Last year it was sold for 20.000: http://www.ebay.ca:80/itm/BEACH-BOYS-ORIGINAL-FENDER-STARCASTER-PROTOTYPE-GUITAR-/130472186089?pt=Guitar&hash=item1e60bf90e9

So if it keeps increasing its value so rapidly, go get a credit, buy it and sell it for 250.000 next year :D
