This1928 Gibson Nick Lucas Special has the gloss black finish and ebony fretboard that Lucas specified for several of his personal instruments. What makes it really special are the decoupage pinup girls strategically placed over the guitar’s body and neck. “Nick’s Bordello” replaces “The Gibson” logo that normally would appear on the headstock, referring possibly to its original Nick Lucas namesake or perhaps an obscure house of ill repute in New Orleans, where this guitar allegedly originated.
It's on the auction block and it's value is estimated at $35,000 -$45,000 with bids starting at $17,000.
