my 1969 Fender Telecaster (blonde with maple neck)- purchased in a pawn shop in Clinton, SC on 2/7/77 for $ 120.00
traded for a 1965 Gibson Melody Maker (which I sold when I need money to get back to Germany in 1984).
my 1975 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe (Tobacco Sunburst)- purchased from an employee (his private guitar) at Pecknell Music in Greenville, SC on 4/22/78 for $450.00
sold to a friend at Ft. Riley, Kansas in 1985. Eventually, this one popped up on eBay in 2010 and I almost bought it back.
my 1985 Gibson Les Paul Custom (Alpine White)- traded a 1987 Kramer Beretta (Black) w/ Floyd Rose for it in an even trade. (This is the one I miss the most)- 1988.
sold in law school, as I was in need of money for my family. (Practically gave it away at $ 375.00) in 1992.
