1969 Gibson Les Paul Custom Black Beauty electric guitar owned by Nigel Pulsford of multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated BUSH throughout his career including PLAYED LIVE ON STAGE AS THE FRIDAY NIGHT HEADLINER OF WOODSTOCK '99 as famously documented in the 2022 Netflix hit documentary "Trainwreck!"
This guitar was on all of the BUSH records during his ownership and comes with full provenance including a letter of provenance from Nigel Pulsford! Bush was easily one of the most famous rock bands of the 90's era with their hit singles played daily across the world (especially America) on the radio and MTV for years & winning the MTV Video Music Awards for 1996's mega-hit "Glycerine"! The band's frontman Gavin Rossdale was famously married to No Doubt's and TV's "The Voice" judge Gwen Stefani and also starred alongside Keanu Reeves in the Hollywood blockbuster film Constantine before becoming a judge himself on the UK's The Voice!
This guitar is over half a century old, having been built in the year of the world's most famous rock concert: Woodstock... and then played on stage by the headlining band 30 years later for the 30th Anniversary Woodstock '99 Festival with 400,000 people in attendance and televised live, seen by tens of millions of people around the world! You can see the guitar on stage with Nigel in the YouTube video of the full set at the 47:30 minute mark and 50:27 minute mark quite clearly.
