I don't like it at all, such an ugly signature

Ugly meaning you think it isn't real? I'm a huge Billy Idol fan and would love this if it's real.

More along the lines of it's sloppy and too touch to make a definitive call based on the signature along.  The seller is a bit of an enigma on this forum - a big bloated dealer who seems to sell mostly authentic material but also plenty of crap, thanks to PSA and JSA's willingness to lazily authenticate just about whatever for him.

Thanks... you probably just saved me $400. Appreciate it.

If you're going to buy a signature that is that sloppy (which I would not recommend in general), I'd only go to the most solid of sources - which Press Pass is not, in my opinion (and the opinion of many others on this forum).  Some of the music items they've sold have been hot topics regarding their dubious authenticity.  They're also often miserably overpriced, even if they were real.

Hey Lori,

Here's a signed CD booklet to compare to the guitar. It's very hard to judge to be honest, but my gut is that then'B' isn't by the same hand IMO. I would be very careful when deciding to spend so much money. You would really need to be sure.

That;s very helpful, thank you. Guess I'll for sure pass on this one.

  I have a Billy Idol autographed guitar which I would be willing to sell if you are interested.  I obtained the autograph myself when Billy Idol played in Arizona during 2011.

This is what a real and nice Billy Idol autograph should look like. I got this in person 1990.

Not anymore..he hacks them petty good now. I am NOT saying the guitar for sale is 'authentic" (I cant say)   but he does not write out his signature this way anymore..this one is very nice...the guitar for sale is more like what he gives now when rushed..although still a bit lacking in complete
