See over 1 MILLION Dollars of Norman's Rare Guitars in 10 minutes with Mark Agnesi - GIBSON
Super cool nice of them to be so hospitable
Priceless: Martin 0042S 8:14
theunofficialma...
Nice !! :)
I like how they balance these $100,000 guitars on a crappy, wobbly stool.
Rupert Baxter it's not gonna break or get scratched even if it did fall
Rupert Baxter and he just throws em around like they are everyday practice gear lol
no matter how hot some chick is , there a dude that is tired of boning her ,
It's not your guitar so don't fucking worry about it.
@Mad Dog Fifi idk, after a couple years of dealing with high Quality stuff they become standar. So value loses meaning
Love the way these expensive guitars get bashed about like they're £100 guitars!!
i've always said that. if we did that, they'd kick us out asap
martlgr it's in a case lol
martlgr I flinched when I heard his rings clink off the Goldtop LP at the start... and the rosewood acoustic. We'd be in big trouble if we did that in this shop
Bite Sized Blues watch that Yngwie video where he throws a 60s strat in his limo
I could listen to Mark talk guitars all day - his knowledge is amazing.
I can't believe they keep that expensive Martin on a stand on the floor where it might get damaged omg
It's not your guitar so don't fucking worry about it.
Relative to their other stuff, it's worth a bag of chips.
that place must have some really tight security
that D'Angelico Bob is in Norms book and he explains how he got it.
The total value of the guitars shown was $472k not counting the *priceless* acoustic at the end (not $1 million) but who's counting lol
+Mitch Levis Actually this was an off camera quote from Mark Agnesi - and priceless 1902 1 of 6 when 1 is still at Martin I would say is worth well over 528 k - so NO it's not clickbait
Fair enough!
+Mitch Levis and forgot to say - the prices are subjective anyway - but I hope you still enjoyed it 🎸🌷

Imagine the insurance Norm pays?!?!?
Cirne Songs my head hurts ....
Grrrr
What is strange is that a lot of these guitars in the early 70's were less desirable than the new guitars. We didn't want a guitar played by someone else. We wanted our own new guitar. Then the collectors came in a bought everything up to sit on for 40 years. So they can sell guitars which should have been circulated for far more than their real worth to people who have way too much money. Guitars became a commodity.
Norm's is my Mecca... I will make a pilgrimage one day. :)
I could seriously watch this ALL DAY LONG!!
I loved the question about any 80-90’s guitars! Yes, not locked up in the back room.
I bought a Les Paul Deluxe sunburst new in 1975 with a hardshell purple lined case. I also kept the hang tag and original receipt. When I decided to sell it in 1996 the guys at the music store told me I would never get more than $500 (I paid $450). They said the Grover tuners that I had professionally installed destroyed the value of the guitar, along with some tiny scratches on the back (I couldn't see any). Finally I held out for $600 from a private buyer. Somewhere out there there's a guy with the guitar, case, receipt and hang tag. I shudder to think what that would be worth now. If I still had it I would never sell it. Oh, and the jokers at the music store told me, "Gibson didn't make a Deluxe in 1975, it must be a Standard."
Why would you save the hang tags and not original tuners?
LOVE THE ENERGY MARK!!!
I'd be so paranoid if I owned a guitar store , sure insurance covers the monetary loss of theft incidents, but losing guitars which are essentially history pieces would be quite a painful ordeal.
Enjoyed the tour. Beautiful guitars. Have been keeping up with norm on you tube. Nice customer base. Hes doing something right. And his customers seem very happy. Thumbs up norm your a class act.
Is it just me or did you want to clap when he said its also a gold back and neck?
Mick Hayes unbelievable! I almost cried!! My heart hurts for that one!
I've been back there, when I bought my 61 jazzmaster. Got to play a lot of old strats to.
That's just sick!!! I wonder how many people would love to work at Norm's!!!
freaking skulls all over it
Hey you shut the case on one of the interior straps on the Stromberg.
Even the cases are awesome looking & colors!!
When I graduate from Texas A&M and earn money down the road as a Chemical Engineer, I will come for that ‘55 Les Paul.
Mark is extremely knowledgeable
can't believe that priceless one of six made guitars is just left out on the floor and not up on a wall in a bullet proof glass case.
imagine explaining to norm and mark how you stumbled fell and made fire kindling of that guitar.
Hey man great vid that was a lot of good guitars man and I saw that you had 1,999 subscribers so I subscribed and gave you 2k
Keith Kulis Jr ha well thank you 🌷🌷
That Stromberg is a beauty !!!
I fell in love about 10 times in that one video !!!!!
I like how the priceless Martin is just out on a cheap stand, on the floor, in the front, so that some 3 year old could come by and shove his ice creme cone down the soundhole.
Magic from another world
They have a '64 Jaguar with matching headstock and I want it so much.
It's $140,000
That was Awesome!
You guys should invite me out to look at these beautiful most likely one of a kind guitars.
I would love a look around there. I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop.
*Mark:*
"You guys like basses?"
*Guys behind camera:*
* hesitates *
"..yes?..."
lol
ฬђ๏ ha 😝 good catch 😝😝😝
Nice stuff
My 1st stop after I win the Powerball.... Yes mark all of those guitars I'll take them... Can you have them restrung and set up by the end of day
I counted the total cost: $477K, and that's not even including the D'Angelico, which wasn't priced. I guess the priceless guitar rounds up to a million.
Why is that 1902 Martin out on the floor???
i would buy Petty's SG just to get that hat
Nahhhh!! If Jimmy, or Jimi, SRV, Prince, or one of the Beatles guitars were in there, THEN I'd get excited !! Tom petty doesn't impress me that much, and I'm a native Floridian : ) !!
cheryl lakin haha, no one cares dude...
Something tells me that SG just rocketed up in value already. RIP TP
i saw him at the meadowlands on that tour with dylan, i'm with you 10000000%
I would buy Petty’s SG just because I love SGs
crushes my soul to just find out how much these things cost. I guess it'll just be another dream
the story they are not telling u are the poor bastards that brought those guitars in and got their asses ripped off !
Ron Azbill sure..as in any, every store
Not surprised !! Just like a pawn shop eh?!
True. The billionaires like Norm always win
Would you be willing to drop every penny you have on guitars, in the hope that they will go up in value? Because Norm did that for decades - and during a time when Strats and Les Pauls definitely weren’t sure-things.
I bought a late 60s Gibson ES, in LA, about a decade ago, for about $4k (the going rate) because I always wanted one, and was convinced they would go up in value. I thought I couldn’t lose. Guess what - the price hasn’t moved up at all lol. I’d struggle to even get $4k for it right now. It’s a lot harder than you think. Takes serious balls to invest in guitars when the entire guitar economy is like the stock market - prices go up/down and can flatline for literally decades
He makes money now, but that’s only from literally decades of risk taking, near bankruptcies, and rolling the dice
Norm's prices are literally Barrett Jackson auction of guitars. Insane
to one day shop at Norman's is a little dream of mine
thanks this is probebley the coolest vid i will see today
Best show ever!#1
so cool
That gold Jazz Bass is breathtaking..
that guy recording the video... THAT HE COULD HAVE JUST WATCHED HERE
Brandon Gallant ha 😃 he was a friend of mine 🎸
not mad or anything . but he could have saw more with his own eyes instead of recording :P
Brandon Gallant yes I know 😃😃 that's why I used the smile 👍🏻🌷
That custom at the start!! 👌
Cool video.
Oooh. Nice, NICE. Oh yeah, nice.
I wonder what his entire inventory is valued at.. anyone care to guess??
moskii 1958 gotta be at least 50 mil right?
I know the black beauty is valuable, but the Gold..everywhere Les Paul is amazing!
Elvis that one makes me want to play the lottery! Haha, only way I'd ever own a masterpiece like that!!
Its like olivander’s wand shop but guitars
The total inventory carried by this place must just be unfathomable.
flexing HARD
Why the hell would bob sell that guitar?
Sharky For money.
That was great. I give you five stars ***** :-)
i guess they have the greatest fire protection....and armed soldiers at the door haha.
6:29! Thats the gem, whats the insurance value of that store? Personally i would not have all these guitars in the same location in case the unthinkable happend! I'm Amazed at how you just drag them out banging the case is around slap some down grab them with his hands full of rings absolutely amazing. I have a modest collection epiphone's the most expensive might be a Couple Grand in price and I handle them literally like they are the Mona Lisa. I know they're versatile I know they're only instruments I know they're meant to be played gigged xcetera but it absolutely blows my mind at how he handles these guitars I'm not saying that he's damaging them in anyway but just blows my mind. I guess if anybody's looking for a curator I would be the obvious choice, meanwhile to do this video would have taken me about 6 hours because I would have been so careful with the guitars
I absolutely appreciate and understand
It's a case of familiarity breeds contempt (a bit harsh) but that's what happens,like guys who work around really expensive cars you tend to see that in some people
Am I the only one who knows nothing about guitars but just likes how cool they look? I only listen to rap but I love looking at rare instruments lmao
the level of arousal in this room is just amazing
heaven exists!
I'm sure they play nice, but the reason they cost so much is the rarity of them. I don't care about that, just how they play. I wouldn't buy them if I had Bill Gates money. They're just not worth it to me. I guess you could impress impressionable people with them, but I'm not into that either. Fun to look at them though. The history and all.
Some of them are actually fairly solid investments if you have the money for them, those '59 Les Pauls only go up in value as time goes on. It's insane to think that back then you could buy one for the equivalent of $1800 in today's money (they were $250 back then) and sell it for $100,000 now. I'd love to know if there's anything we could possibly buy today for that price that would gain that value in 50 years.
Good point. you wouldn't even want to play it. It's an investment, like buying gold.
I turned one down for $2000 in 1977, it was dead mint.
But then again I could have bought $10K worth of Sun Microsystems stock right at the IPO. If I had held on to that investment and got out at the optimum time, that money at the then current market price would have bought roughly 25 percent of the world's supply of "Bursts" at their then market value. (Assuming they made roughly 1600 and had an eighty percent survival rate to that point.)
My dad turned down a Ferrari GTO for five grand because the rear end made noise and chunks of Bondo (the factory bondo, they used lots) were falling off. Would have been '71 or so.
Couldashouldawoulda has no end and can only drive you nuts.
autocrow They're collectors items so they're not meant to be played
maybe deep inside there is a different opinion that you're not aware of (yet). Don't you love art besides music ?
Still amazed they slide those guitar cases across plywood like that, aren't some of those cases worth a lot of money too?
capnrob97 I was thinking the same thing. At least put some pool deck grade carpet back there.
Thats what the case is for
A case without its original guitar is devalued by half almost
2:19 but im a lefty tho so..... nice to look at!
Man i wish i can play and photo with those guitars
Dont get me wrong most of these guitars are extremely rare and beautiful but they are not worth as much as dude says. They are marking them up like 50-100% which is ridiculous and because of this there are very few people out there who are ever gunna buy them. I mean $100,000 for a guitar get tf outta here. I'd rather buy a house with that 100k
The deal is they don't make them anymore any any item is worth what someone will pay for it
My pal bought a gibson for 100k later sold it for 200k and bought a house
Here are two beautiful 59' Les Pauls......k...thanks for watching guys. Later!
Sorry I got drool all over your video chad!
Brock Davisson ha I know right🎸🎸😃
Is the 1 dollar guitar from dollar tree there
Pink Jackson yes
That Tom Petty SG is probably worth a lot more now. RIP
Holy cow I hope Norm has a good security system.
Great video! I do imagine the 'priceless' one of six made 1902 acoustic has to be out on the floor for potential buyers no? What sort of money are we actually talking here?
+MM PDJ I am not exactly sure - priceless seems to me to be something that needs a lock an key 😜
Chad Boston that's what I'm talking about how can that guitar just be sitting out there allowing anyone to grab hold of it and play it
3:33 - 3:35 = Guitargasm.
Wow.
I wonder, in 100 yrs will they still be playable if kept well.
This is just insane.
You can hear his ring rubbing on the guitars😱
joe lives close by...lol that explains alot! the guy has good tast in guitars and amps and a severe addiction to collecting.
I just wanna park my butt on that stool for minute or two. All of the history that he's putting there...
Alright!
On the early strats / teles / Pbass etc. what’s the point of the tremolo / bridge cover?
They look nice but what’s the function?
I'll take em all. That's the only way I'd get them.
BRING UP THE VOLUME GUYS
I would sell my soul for just one of those
These prices are out of control. The three pickup '57 LP Custom for $110,000? No wonder
Norm has had it for literally decades in the store. Unless Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, or
Eric Clapton has owned this guitar (which is possible, of course), on today's market it
might bring half that. Tops. I owned a '54 LP Custom, original all the way, and it was only
worth about $30,000-35,000. I know there are a lot of factors involved in pricing but
seriously ... I'd bet most people would rather own that LP Standard, all gold, from 1954
than the three pickup LP Custom. One would think the originality of the '54 Custom would
make it more valuable but no. It's not that sought after. It's those LP Standards and Gold
Top Standards from '57 to '60 because, well, look who played them and they are the cream
of the crop electrics from the greatest vintage of Gibson's electric solid body models.
It's for the Frampton fans.
Funny!
larry geetar thing is he can let it sit for as long as he wants. Then someone who wants it will come along. They are there for the history too.
A 1959 burst les paul goes for ~$400,000, as much as a house.
The right ones go for more, now. Celeb history and or flameyness can put you well over half a mil.
But the downside-they will never be worthless, but they almost certainly will be worth a lot less when the boomers all bust. They are not like Old Cremona violins where they are a matter of state prestige for symphony orchestras, and even those could take a markdown when Trump cuts off funding to symphonies here.
No one now under 30 gives a shit about Michael Bloomfield, Cream era Clapton, or any of the things that made Bursts the original vintage electric guitar.
In a lot of the country you can get a very nice house for a lot less than 400K, by the way.
makes you think how good the glue was back in the day.
the gold gibson is 45 k closer to my price range than the black one now i just need 44200 more and i can take it home..neat.
How much do you think of Randy Roades guitar would go for
MARK....i want your job
Sounds like a pawn stars in the background
"Unfortunately Joe Bonamassa lives close by..."
Having seen the Reverb feature on his collection, makes perfect sense.
Mark great show today. Mark I would like to request you too play something from the pioneering, trailblazing, all-female rock band FANNY. GREAT BAND AND SHOULD BE IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME NEXT BALLOT.
YOU WANTED THE BEST YOU GOT THE BEST LADIES AND GENTLEMEN "FANNY"
Dragging the cases on the plywood ads a lot value to those guitars
D'oh ! 💲💲
I would like here them playing. Every one of them.
Bet that Tom Petty guitar is worth a lot more now!
Niiiiice
