Used Soloist at Guitar Center

[Larz]

Am I missing something or is this an insane price on what has to be a low mileage "used" SL2H in absynthe frost? Scroll down about halfway from the top of the page. (Its described as the Amethyst Frost Dinky)

Maybe I just haven't paid attention to the used market or maybe it has no case, etc....

I would think that's a fair price even without a case. I don't think a late model soloist of any condition is worth more than $1k.

it is a dinky DK1 , i called them about it the original owner replaced the emg's with passive pickups they said its in good shape , but it has been up for a while.

Okay, saw the Duncans and figured not a Dinky. Thanks for the info.

Looks like an interesting Jackson strat right above it!

[Mazrim]

That's an ace price by UK standards. Bloody lucky so and sos.

That would go for $1000 in the UK easily. Somebody buy it for me.

That one has been taunting me for a while now, along with a few others that seem mispriced.

It has indeed been sitting for a bit. Might be able to wheel & deal with them a little on it.

I scored my 2000 Soloist fr around that price a few months ago. Patience and quick calls are the key my friend.

I don't even see it anymore on that link. Someone grab it?

Why would Duncans not make it a Dinky? A Dinky = bolt-on neck. A Soloist = neck-thru body.

so what was it priced at???


and this brings up a good point, why is it that nearly every guitar on ebay they want a fortune for??? its hard to find good deals. I agree with Grant Turk. he is right, any used soloist late model, from about 1999 and newer isnt worth more than a $1000 used. but people have them priced for twice that. even $1500 is way too much IMO.

Me = idiot I guess?

Ha ha, for some reason looking at the tiny photo I assumed it was a 2 hum soloist with the SD's in it and I thought new Dinky's (given that A/F is a relatively new color) came stock with EMGs over SD's?

You couldn't tell it was a bolt-on from the photo. At least I couldn't.

[Larz]

It was $799

There's the exact same used model/color on Ebay right now with a BIN of $1,799.

$799

WOW. if I had seen it for that price, I would have bought it. thats a great price for a USA DK1
