1955 Goldtop Les Paul - used on the solo of 'The Wall'

estimate $30,000-50,000

Initial bid $35,000

Sold at $360,000!

My 1954 is available for under 10% of that just saying

Actually that Goldtop may prove to be the bargain of the show!

Nige- the Broadcaster at $120k for me!!

James, the solo on ABITW was NOT played on a Broadcaster!

Believe it or not, that just doesn't bother me!

Oops. I saw the thread & read ' Live David Gilmour Action' !

Thanks for the updates Pete.

Must be $2M for the black strat.

Gassage

This bit of the Auction before the Black Strat comes on is like being seeing him live and be forced to listen to 'the new album' bit so you can hear Comfortably Numb at the encore.

I really fancied Lot 40, 6120 Gretsch Chet Atkins

estimate $7-9000

Just sold for $80,000

I just can't understand that price!

Agreed, there are some big players there!

How many of these are going to bidders in the room? or is it mostly anonymous phone/online bids? 

Gassage

Thank fuck DG's not selling a Reliced Kirk Hammett ESP.

I reckon 50/50 between room and online/phone

Gretsch Firebird (Lot 42) she had it at $9,000 and someone in the room just shouted out $20,000 - that's the atmosphere.

It's at $50,000 now and still going

Whitecat

Just wait until they get to the Dean guitars... those are the ones the real collectors will be gunning for...

Lot 42 Gretsch Firebird - $70,000

Sold online to Texas

What lot number are they on? I need a pee.

I imagine these prices will see the death of the fretboard's classified section with a lot of people just shifting their sales to Christies.

Can't get the website to work at all; on Chrome and Firefox the link does nothing and on Edge it loads up a popup window with some Ts and Cs but no video.

Anyone managing to view as a spectator?

1976 Nylon String Ovation, played on the Wall tour.

estimate $1000-1500

Sold for a shocking, amazing $95,000!

We're up to Lot 46
