    Paul McCartney is the greatest musician on this planet. Every other musician wants to meet him. If all the great musicians we’re in a room together and then walked in Paul McCartney, all the energy in the room would turn towards him.

    Paul--always a gentleman, always humble in the way he carries himself. I love the way he is just there to compliment, pay tribute and respect, and then sit down to listen. I also love the way he can plant two kisses on Les Paul's face, before and after, his little tribute. He is a man who is in touch with his emotions and manly enough to show them....and manly enough to sing the countless "silly love songs" that he's written because he's so integrated and well-balanced as a person. Props to you, Sir Paul!

      No surprise if they do. Collector for 40 yrs and imo Gibson is already rudderless. "Collectors choice" "aged" "Historic" etc price point $6 to well over 10 gs. Never understood "star" replica guitars. Its only "special" to the owner. Not sure Les wanted his best guitars to cost more than our first cars.
