Searching through the Internet for the most expensive acoustic guitars, we couldn’t find any concrete results. We went through blog posts like the ones done by Vintage Guitar, Leftyfretz, The Momi, and Christie’s, amongst others. Surprisingly, not all of these instruments were necessarily owned by a celebrity, where you could expect really high prices, or sold at an auction. Instead, this article also includes items that are available in manufacturer product lines. This list was done selecting the most expensive items sold (at auctions or private sales) and estimates of the actual price of some of these items, as the values have surely changed over time.
