Description

Jones’s custom-designed Les Paul used during every show of the Sex Pistols’ reunion tour

Jones’s personally owned and used blue glitter-bodied Gibson Les Paul electric guitar used on stage during the Sex Pistols reunion. This guitar was used by Jones in every show on the Sex Pistols’ 1996 Filthy Lucre tour. The body of the guitar is adorned with two affixed pin-up girl stickers. This guitar was designed by Jones with the electronics fixed to replicate the amazing sound heard on the first Sex Pistols record. In fine condition, with expected light wear and chipping to finish. The Filthy Lucre Tour in 1996 consisted of 78 shows in five continents spanning almost six months. This guitar was originally acquired directly from Jones in 1998. Stage-used gear from this iconic punk band is virtually non-existant and for certain the demand far outweighs the supply. RR Auction COA.

An additional video of the guitar being played can be viewed on YouTube.
