bushdog: Lefthanded Collings I-35 Deluxe Collings I-35 Deluxe Body - Mahogany, Maple Top Neck - Mahogany Fingerboard -Rosewood Pickups - Lollar Humbuckers     Made in USA Blurb - Bill Collings is one of the most acclaimed luthiers out there so there is not much to be said about I-35 besides that it is distinctively elegant and refined. This lefty has many tasty options like quilted maple top and custom inlays. Normally it would be perfect for Jazz and soft Blues but I just cant shake a fantasy of using it to ruin some The Who songs..            $ 5300

ESP Amakusa Body - Alder Neck - ? Fingerboard -? Pickups - Seymour Duncan Humbuckers  Made in Japan Blurb - Jaw dropping piece of art that’s what it is! Info is very scarce about this custom made ESP, first seen at NAMM 2011. Along with its uber-exclusive sibling, ESP Kizoku, it took almost a year to build. Not sure about playability though. Actually I’m sure its awful but who cares just look at it! This one is not meant to be played but to spend its lifetime on a wall of some rich fella.         ~ $ 30000

Godin Icon Type 2 Classic Body - Mahogany Neck - Mahogany Fingerboard - Ebony Pickups - Godin GHN1 & Seymour Duncan ‘59 Humbuckers     Made in Canada Blurb - Godin is a guitar company from Quebec well known for quietly making superb instruments and offering killer value for money. This baby is no exception, equipped with a Graphtech ResoMax bridge and Godin HD Revoicer it’s quite a versatile guitar with a great tone range. It is lightweight and has a thin neck but most of all, in this price range it’is just vastly superior to your usual Gibson and Fender. Maybe that’s why John McLaughlin has one..       $ 1300
