10. D’Aquisto archtops
($75,000 to $100,000)

Luthier James D’Aquisto (d. 1995) apprenticed under the famed John D’Angelico. D’Aquisto mostly built to order, and his rarest models bring a premium.
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

No. Not that one. Don't think so anyway.

I think I've reached my zenith with the R6 / Two Rock combination. Anything else is idle curiosity and decoration. :-)

Friend of mine got himself a brand new 56 goldtop... the epiphone with the fuckhuge neck and p90s.

Except, it’s a “56 les Paul pro”
... because it’s a surprisingly nice deep blue colour.
