Most valuable guitar?

Re: Most valuable guitar?

my blue model two has the most comfortable body of any of my guitars, but my mod 4 has the better neck...i could mutt the two and have an awesome guitar which i'd never consider getting rid of

Re: Most valuable guitar?

I'll keep my Les Paul Junior for a long time. I just really like that guitar. The only way I'd get rid of my strat is if I upgraded to a different strat. Everyone needs a plain jane strat with 3 singles and a floating vintage trem.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

My 2 JCF guitars will not become available. The only other one that I have that I'd really hate to part with is my 1981 Flying V I have owned since new.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

My Custom Jackson Demon never never never. I'll never find another neck like it or another guitar that sounds like it.
My Jackson PC1 either.

Those are the only 2 guitars I have ever been completely happy with.

Every now and then by pure luck or accident you find a guitar that has magical tone and sustain. They don't come along too often - like Neil Youngs black Les Paul for example.

The Demon has more sustain than my Neck through Warrior and the best rock-shred tone/articulation/focus I have ever heard from any guitar. Harmonics are better than the Ibanez Jem I use to own.
The PC1 was a NAMM demo and is also spectacular.

Money cannot buy that magical tone - it happens by accident - for some reason just the right combo of woods, construction and parts, tolerances, etc...

I've got a PRS that I bought as an "investment" about 15 years ago, when they were still being hand made.

But my Jackson/Charvel mutt is the guitar that I won't ever let go.

I'd like to see a pic of that PRS.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

Totally coincidental, but both would be Bullseyes. The red/white anniversary and the GX Bullseye. It would be hard letting go of any, but those I wouldnt even consider.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

I could probably become VERY attached to a Suhr strat or one of those GMW Empires.

Here you go:



It's a 1992 Classic Electric.

Flamed Maple Top, Whale Blue finish, Wide Thin Neck, Brazilian Rosewood Fingerboard, Abalone inlays, Vintage Bass Neck PU, HFS Bridge PU.

I picked it up in 1992 for a little less than a grand, I see used CE's with solid finishes (no flames) selling for upwards of 2G's here (in Japan).

My pink Vinnie Vincent V no doubt. I've never seen another like it from the original run. The #2 is the Batio Dean Jet Double = one-of-a-kind. #3 is the Vandy white puzzle.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

I loved my kh2, it was the guitar that I wanted before I even played.

I wanted it since I was 10 years old, but I sold it [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

My epiphone LP special and my dean acoustic are sacred though. They were my 1st guitars and my parents bought them for me.

I would sell all my high end gear and anything I own before I sell those 2 guitars

Re: Most valuable guitar?

This is Easy..sorry no pics.

My Koa '95 San Dimas I Charvel w/gold hardware/floyd!

Well it's been my main player ever since I bought it in '95..simply because there is no paint to scratch..so it became my right arm..basically.

All my other geetars are still new with the lil' taggers on them..no "scratches" on any of those.. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Most valuable guitar?

All my vintage guitars are valuable to me, not only for the price, but sometimes it took some years to find "ma belle" & sometimes a gift from my father collection :

*Weissenborn style 2 - 1928 ( it took 4years to have it!)
*National style O - 1933 ( old guitar from my father )
*Gretsh Chet Atkins tenessean model- 1959
*Hofner Jazz acoustic - 1958 ( bought in Amsterdam with a lot of weed in the air, i fall in love in this music shop)
*Les Paul Gold top - 1980 (bought in Africa: Libreville Gabun, from an African whom held the guitar on his shoulder...i bought it directly on the street...for 75USD...)
*My ESP Kirk Hammet KH-3 (my first metal guitar bought during my first stay in the USA: New york)
*Endly my Y2KV, i just bought online & i dreamt about mustaine signature guitar KV1 & Y2KV for 10 years...

I really think that the most valuable guitar is the one with the most valuable story link to your ears & heart!

Re: Most valuable guitar?

I think that guitars are lifeless things wich are made of wood and some metal, some sound good, some sound like shit. I would sell anything if the price is right.

Re: Most valuable guitar?

I guess it would be my SG61 Reissue. However ,if I will get a LP Custom it will be surely a keeper.
