I always thought the highest priced guitar would be a burst owned by a celebrity. i.e. Pearly Gates, the Peter Green/Gary Moore/Kirk Hammet one, Jimmy Page's two bursts, the Keith/Mick Taylor one or imagine if the Beano one came forward...
I was being sarcastic and throwing it out as a pre-emptive strike for all the uninformed people who think their $500 Epiphone can hang with a real Burst.
