He mentions at around the 5:30 mark that he pulls out the bridge and middle position on the knobs. Push/Pull knobs? Rotary toggle switch? Strange. Definitely modern era mods. That hex nut if from the original jack input plate. the guy in the video should know that.

I had a chat with the owner, and he states Keith has just recently verified it was his guitar. He didn't want to confirm Keith's statement is on signed paper or film.

I think if the seller could verify with a photo that this was Keith's guitar it would have been worth more than a million. To date the Keith Burst is still the most expensive guitar ever sold.

I talked to the owner too. This is a Mickey Baker model Les Paul. Not to many made.
