      Are you fu*king kidding me with that comment? Have you been to Norm's? Have you watched the videos with Nick? He is the most knowledgeable, respectful, unassuming person in the store. He is an invaluable part of Norm's team...INVALUABLE. They just unpacked a truckload of museum pieces, but they ain't in church listening to one preacher. They are all geeking out over these finds.
      He also can play at a level very few guitarists on the planet can play. His own personal musical history and connection to the industry would shake you right out of your self-appointed judgemental chair.

    Dang! Norm’s got all the cool guitars! OK-the deal with the Epiphone Professional is that it’s got all the amp controls built into the guitar. The reverb and tremolo controls on the guitar just work with the actual circuits in the amp, and it needs a special cord to work. The jack on the guitar’s top just takes the signal from the pickup through the volume and tone controls, for use with a different amp. I always wondered why they didn’t use two pickups on those-I guess they thought the Tonexpressor switches (that’s what they called them!) would have enough tone variations. The same bank of switches was used on the Epiphone Al Caiola models.

    Great find that first telecaster, but it was never used what it was made for - create music. Whoever will buy it will probably stick it in his safe and secure keep it for decades, so the curse of guitar that is never played would continue. Museum piece, nothing more.

  • @5after4am

    The color picture of the 'original owners' of the Telecaster doesn't seem correct. They bought it in the fifties? The picture ,clothes & hair don't look fifties. And if it's a modern picture, they're too young to have bought it in the fifties.

      When people tell me they want to start playing guitar and their left-handed, I try to convince them to learn right-handed, or lefty on a right-handed guitar. The reason is because you might find one or two lefty guitars even on Guitar Center’s enormous Wall of Guitars. Play lefty and you’re just limiting your own access to instruments you can play, and will be in for constant disappointment.

    Most of these guitars are up on Reverb and way, way OVERPRICED! Norm really.... $25K for that quirky, sunburst Gibson '64 ES-335 w/ varitone circuit and goof-hider pickup mounting rings? OMG! ..... $23K for the fugly Gibson '64 walnut ES-345 w/ wacko tremolo tailpiece? What is the world coming to?

    I've never seen a ES-340, beautiful blonde guitar with what looked like a maple neck too...W○W!

    I'm surprised (unless you did) that you didn't let JOHN 5 know about it???
