Ronnie Montrose vs. Gary Moore concerning a ‘59 Les Paul. From the Marin Independent Journal…
On Oct. 10, 1972, the guitar was stolen when the Edgar Winter Group performed at Nichols College in Dudley, Mass.
Montrose’s guitar has been valued at as much as $500,000, according to Tiburon vintage guitar collector Michael Indelicato.
But now, after recognizing his Les Paul in a British guitar magazine, Montrose filed a lawsuit last week in U.S. District Court in San Francisco against Gary Moore, himself a famed guitarist from Belfast in Northern Ireland. In the complaint, Montrose claims that Moore has his stolen guitar and refuses to give it back.
Wow! 500 Grrrr for a Les Paul?
Gary is having a big year as far as lawsuits go.
Here’s a thought…which lawsuit will garner the bigger pay day courtesy of Mr. Moore; the ‘59 Les Paul or “Still Got The Blues”?
