[QUOTE="speed2dirt, post: 117545, member: 2983"] Are you sure the Les Paul is modded? In the '80s, Gibson did put Kahlers on some Les Pauls stock. I'd take the strings off and remove the tremolo to see if the route looks stock or not (should be painted, I believe). As for assessing value, I'd say it depends on the individual market. What a Les Paul sells for in So Cal could be significantly different from Michigan. Looks at Craigslist and local listing site for similar models and price accordingly. Around here, a faded V would go for $500-700. It being a 1998 model, it'd probably increase the value a bit since most see the '90s as Gibson's peak era (minus the highly desirable '50s & '60s). If you put that in your listing, it might attract more attention. As for the Les Paul, I have no idea. The Kahler isn't desired by the LP traditionalists, but is by the hot rodded guys that want to get into a LP without spending a fortune on the Axcess. Personally, I'd love to have an old Gibson Les Paul with Kahler. :wink: [/QUOTE]
