Joe Bonamassa trades his Gibson Les Paul Goldtop at Norman's Rare Guitars

Joe Bonamassa trades his very first Gibson Les Paul that was made for him (the prototype). This is the most important piece of Bonamassa history that has ever been for sale. Check it out!!!

He's humble, gracious & not ya typical music industry guitarist /singer. He's very respectful, kind, funny & a very talented guy who worked his ass of for many years to be the musician he is today! Very proud I listened to him long ago! What an awesome dude!

[GazMoz]

Personally I think Joe will regret selling this one.

[trollfiddler]

Great respect for Joe. Cool guy who stuck to his music when the big labels didn't want it. Nice human being.

[Anthraxicus]

Joe, thanks for all that you do for everyone. You're a special guy and it's an honor to be able to share a world with you.

[michaelcarley]

What a down to earth guy, wish I had friends like him

[bnelsonbraveheart]

I’ve really become a fan of Joe’s by watching these videos and learning more about him. Truly a classy guy!

[MessyTimes]

He seems like a kid whose parents raised him right. His excellent musicianship is a bonus and a gift to us all.

[grandnaguszek]

Frank Stallone probably already has this one on layaway

I've just fallen in love with Joe. He may have a big chin, and a funny last name but boy, does he have the kindest soul, the sweetest singing voice and guitar playing skills to die for.
Stay lovely and grounded, Joe, us fans truly love you for it.

[igolfjtweetler]

he's a monster player flying the flag for blues rock guitar like nobody else his generation. Keeping it alive.

Thank you Norm & Joe for sharing your talent and gifts with those of us who are true music lovers!

For some reason I've resisted applauding Joe's accomplishments for years. After seeing him play as a child I expected him to eventually burn out and become a pipe fitter or mechanic leaving music behind as many applauded by stars do. But he stayed with it and invested the time, effort and work it took to become what he is today. To see him contribute to those around him, to speak to the public as a modest human being, yet continue working to advance his skills is overwhelming. His modesty, consideration for others, and his contributions to family, friends, and people in general is a most unexpected gift to all of us. Given what I've seen Joe's welcome at my table as long as I remain living.

[KorvidRavenscraft]

As one of those homeless people, I want to sincerely thank you for your heart and for what you do for those around you

[shanesanko]

Joe's one stand up guy plus one of the best guitar players around

[jeanaskeletina]

helping those less fortunate than ourselves is a beautiful thing..!!
you guys are right on..! God bless everyone.

Love all the jealous people who rag on Joe, a man who’s living his passion and doing it his way. Last I checked, you can’t force people to listen to your music! They’re plenty of artists I may not like but respect them for their success and abilities.

[cdiana]

I love the bit where he gives advice in earnest about how to handle endorsements. As if that’s something we’ll all have to figure out someday. There should be more people on the planet like him.

[MikenMpls]

Joe tells great stories. I would love to see him at a song writer/ performer show interview on stage. So humble and so giving. Have fun at villa Boehm, wish I was there!

[nphillips]

A fantastic musician, a really nice guy and quite possibly the greatest guitarist of his generation.

[randybrandes]

so good to hear how much you do for the less fortunate, I have opened my door, to a few homeless teens, and Dusten is now off to school back east, after being with me and my wife, for four years, he is now family to us and we still support him in his journey. I was very happy to receive a beautiful Les Paul faded t from him a year ago Christmas. since then, I have rejoined my efforts to learn to play after 40 years, and in this process, have discovered what an amazing guitar player you are. thank you for your gifts to us...
