Sadly Vic Flick had to sell that guitar in 2013 due to money problems. And were you aware he also appeared on the TV show “Pawn Stars” where he sold another guitar for a record price? Check out this video at about the 8 minute mark.

He’s still alive and in his 80s and well known for far more than just the James Bond theme, having played for or with many well known music ‘stars’.

Hi Piet,

I can also recommend 'The Man with the Midas touch" by Geoff Leonard, Pete Walker and Gareth Bradley.

I did a little reading too. That model of guitar was on the market recently-for $30,000.

I guess someone thought the guitar's association with the owner was worth an additional $25,000!

And really, why not?
