  • Buying advice for KE1

    I'm trying to buy a Kelly and I'm finding that KE1s are usually cheaper than KE2s, and I love that it's built to Marty's specifications(and has his name on the headstock). I've been waiting for a new guitar for such a long time now and I'm kinda losing my patience about it.

    So I offered this guy 600 pounds which is 1200 Canadian(where I live). He says he won't sell it for less than 800 pounds. Is that worth it? 1600 dollars for a plain black one in mint condition? Or should I keep waiting for a different one to come up?
    Thanks

    They can be had for about 8 or 9 hundred dollars US if you keep looking...

      I had my eye on that one too, but my budget is £150 short of his minimal acceptance price. Drat.. There's a yellow bengal KE2 for £1200 as well. Bring on end-January 2008...

          My advice on getting a ke1 is get one I got mine for about $900 off fleabay a few years back. Nowadays they are somewhat rare. I'd say wait a bit and look for a better deal.
          I feel festive all year round. Deal with it.

            I've been wanting a KE-1, and a while ago when I didn't want one I saw a few go for 700-900. That dude is asking way too much and won't get it.

            My advice is wait it out, you'll be surprised what patience and ebay can offer.

              I think I remember that as well...



              Also, if you are outside of the UK, you don't want to be buying from the UK.

                Alright thanks guys. I can wait if it'll mean saving that much money and avoiding difficulties in shipping overseas. Means that I'll have to compete with you lot though
