Used RR-1's

[Orchid]

Hi, I'm getting really close to buying a new guitar. I've been looking at RR-1's on ebay. I'm willing to spend probably up to $1000 for one. I've seen a couple on ebay which are in pretty good conditions, going for about $900-$1200. I'm just wondering,how much should most used RR-1's go for, so that I'm not like getting ripped off? Also, are all the RR-1's I see w/ Kahlers like older models, or just custom ones?

What the hell? This went out on sale just yesterday I think and it was at like $56, and I look today and it's like $1000 with like 5 days still left.

Uh, what is the seller yapping about with the color being ordered to be black on back via the Custom Shop?! [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

"This was ordered from the Jackson Custom shop to be black on back, see original tag."

Serial UO. Not custom. Production Model

Re: Used RR-1\'s

Depending on the age, and condition, I have seen them go from $660 to upwards of $1500. There's a thread in the Ebay section about the one that went for $660 a few days ago. It wasn't mint, but it wasn't bad either. I paid $850 shipped for mine, and it is very close to mint condition. If you are looking for a graphic (Bengal, lightning sky etc..)you will pay more, that is for sure.

Basically, if you can get one for under $1000 in good shape, you did okay.

Yeah, I'm not buying it if it goes well over $1000, that's for sure. I guess plain 'ol black would be fine enough for me, but painted bevels or pinstripes would be nice too. I would prefer EMG's too, so it may be a while before someone puts something like that up on sale...

Re: Used RR-1\'s

I was gonna bid on that RR-1 that went for $660 on Ebay, but decided to pass as I really don't want a tremolo. I had emailed the seller and it was a 2001 model with frets in good shape. I really thought it would bring more $$. When I went to bed it was at $660 and I thought sure somebody else would put in another bid! Wow, somebody got a deal.

What I really want is an RR-1T in black with gold pinstripes. And rear-routing is preferred, but I'd probably have to go custom shop to get that. Anyway, does anybody know about availability of an RR-1T in black with gold pinstripes? How much do they usually go for on the used market?

You'll have a MUCH harder time finding one of those than a Floyded RR1.

Re: Used RR-1\'s

RR1T's seem to bring a little bit more on the used market. According to a Jackson brochure I had, they only make 50 RR1T's per year.

Re: Used RR-1\'s

50?! Wow, either they make a very small percentage with the fixed bridge or Jackson is a lot smaller company than I thought it was!
