1970 Gibson Les Paul Custom – gifted by Eric Clapton to Gregg Allman – is headed to the auction block

Thought this might be of interest to ABB fans. It is not a Duane guitar but here is a chance to own one played by Gregg Allman

I remember Gregg playing a black Les Paul like that in the early to mid 70's after Duane died. He usually played guitar on Wasted Words and Done Somebody Wrong in the Chuck/Lamar lineup.
Sometimes it would be a metal guitar...I understand it is made by Veleno or something like that.
And I saw Gregg play those songs using a SG and a Stratocaster in the Chuck/Lamar lineup.
But the black Les Paul may very well be gifted to Gregg from Clapton.
Clapton gave Susan a Les Paul in recent years.
Devon Allman inherited all 43 of Gregg's guitars, the guitars Gregg owned at his death.
