Is this Motley Crue guitar for real?

It has a JSA LOA but still unsure on it. It could be that it was signed in 1991 and most of the stuff I have seen is more recent.

I was in Charlotte when this person brought this in to be authenticated. Really cool piece.

Looks pretty good to me. If I'd had know that the Crue's signatures were going to move up in price so much I'd have bought a few more of the signed drum heads that the band's website had up about 6 months ago. You could pick them up for around 200.00.

I don't know if I's put down the 3500.00 that is the opening bid on eBay.

I paid $2500 for my Motley Crue guitar. There just are not too many of them out there for sale. It was pricey but I have no regrets.

I have never seen Tommy Lee signed like that. It's a great looking guitar. Mick and Vince look pretty typical but Tommy and Nikki look different than their sigs today, but it was signed in 1991. It is expensive but it is very difficult to get all the band members on one guitar, and not just the pic guard. Another thing I noticed is the dating. Mötley Crüe does not usually date items from what I've seen and this has been dated by all 4 members. The Nikki's I have his last i is a continuation of the k while in this one they are separate. If the experts say it's authentic then it is likely authentic, I'm still fairly new to the hobby and trying to learn what I can.

Motley crew is getting ready to start a farewell tour. Go grab a vip meet and greet package and a guitar and have tons of cash left over with a story of meeting the band for less than what this guy wants.

From what I've read about the meet n greets you don't always have all members of the band show up. Also they are not signing much at them.

At the Evening In Hell Tour Tommy isn't a part of the meet n greets according to the band's website. You got the following for the Diamond Meet & Greet:
