First thing I thought about was Robert's mom.

That poor guitar. On top of the hack job of modifications, it appears to have been rattle-canned with horrible gold spray paint. An abomination IMO.

Gotta say I'm with @gball on this one. Its a cool guitar by its story and history and its owner truly made it her own. But as a guitar on the market? God no.

Im sure someone with dispensable income will jump on it but it would be better suited as a museum piece than a resale item

Yeah cool story and that it is her 53 but what a mess.
Shame.

I cany get past the buzzing.

I've worked on them. I've played them. Nothing special.

I cant get past the buzzing.

Love how the host called the pickups "P90 Humbuckers."

I've worked many of these old Gibsons. I've played them. Nothing special and lacking in almost every respect.
