Cool photos of famous Rock guitars.

This fall, renowned photographer Lisa S. Johnson releases the coffeetable book '108 Rock Star Guitars,' featuring striking photography of the beloved axe of rock's most famous musicians.

Cool idea. Don't think I could take another photo of Keef's mug.

He is using a bunch of scaffolding that I own. It's been a long time and I believe that the guitar will become mine.
It's a brand new Epiphone Les Paul autographed by Ozzy Osborne and Zach Wilde, big signatures right on the front.
His wife won it at a casino. I won't play it, I have many other guitars, but I would like to know what it's worth to a
collector. Any ideas about it's value?

Epi LP's range anywhere from $200 to $450 brand new at Guitar Center or Musician's Friend so the base value is not that high. If authentic the value would increase, but not really sure by how much. The trick would be making sure the sigs were authentic as those promotion "signed" guitars are often just signed by assistants. If they are authentic though I can tell you that the value will go up considerably when Ozzy passes, so if I had the guitar I'd put it away or in a display case and hang on to it.
