Ah, I'll have 2 please.

Yes. there are two lots. The $33k one and its 24 friends, and the 250
$10K ones, which dont have the aging or the signatures.
Or so Adrians magazine says, so I believe it.

I personally would love one, although I would prefer the white one, with
the proper tailpiece, rather than the 70s reissue with the little piece
of metal at the end that is hard to get strings for.

In fact, like this one:http://www.rosetti.co.uk/products/gibson/eds1275twinaw.htm

ok, it still has the silly little piece of metal but it is much closer
to the bridge, so the strings are shorter.
Only £2482 if you don't mind not having Jimmy page scrawling on it!
