From Gibson's website -
Our favorite of all these articles is Larry Meiners' Top 10 guitar buys under $1000.
All 10 are Gibsons. ranging from 1969 to 1973. Larry's prices are from
the 1995 VG price guide, so some might not be available for under $1000 any
more. Most of the models are still in production in some form or another, and
some, like the Explorer, still have street prices under the $1000 limit. It's
a great list of vintage "sleepers."
