Redux: Four Digit Standards


Recommended Posts

Posted

This has been asked many times (but not here on the new board). A solid scratch and dent well worn player with no breaks.

What's a reasonable asking price?

It seems like in the last few months, even beat, but not heavily modded 4-digit Standards are pulling $2k minimum. I have seen two Kahlered examples sell for between $1,850 and $2,100.

Is this one you're selling, Rick?

Why not just do a silent auction? I'm sure you'll end up with many more dollars than you think you might get otherwise....

I'd say closer to $3k than $3k for an unbroken unKahlered one. $2500 is probably not a bad deal for a dot necked 1980-1984 beater anymore.

Let me weigh in from my po' boy perspective...

How much for a REAL beater with repair(s) including headstock...? That I might be able to manage in the forseeable future...

I gave it a shot, but I can't justify any more than what I bid. Just outside my current disposable income limit.

I was high bidder for a short while. Thought I might be able to sneak it without a snipe, but no.

It was a new milestone for me though; Never spent more than $400 on a guitar in my life, but I would of for that one.

He'll ship it to the states. Anyone with the horsepower willing to try?

Hmmmmmm.

What nice flames you have!!!! Man, the import fees will be a tiddy little added amount too I bet. Wouldn't mind seeing one of the English lads score that one though. Jem, Martin, Dr Large, you boys on that one? ;);)

side note to wyldbil: They are out there brother, search and you will find. Whackhead was a decapitated Standard with a 20 year old repair and no case for 15 years when I found him in the local music mag STUPID cheap in 2001! :D

Life IS Good!

It's like heroin, man... a good junkie doesn't care HOW much it costs... just FIND the money - knock off a few liquor stores or something! Jeez.. do I have to teach you guys how to do EVERYTHING? ;)

Not sure I understand what you mean, Floyden (?). Looks like Disturber got a good deal!

I still think that one went at the low end of the range of where things are now. Really makes me wish I'd held onto mine a couple years more, but I got to buy them stupidly cheap (one for less than $500 and one for $650), and had the pleasure of playing them for a while.

Disturber scores!

I had totally missed this thread.

Didn't think to many HFC'ers where

aware of this one.

Yes I got it. Damn, this was not expected.

The winning bid looked like it would stop

at 1 700 dollars. That seemed to be

to cheap so I had to bid, which I had

not really planned to do.

I thought I'd go in high so I would

not be beaten by a dollar or so,

but did not expect it to land so close

to my maximum bid. I had expected

to get it for a bit less. Where shall

I get the funds for this one, lol.

Anyway I'm looking forward to receive

this baby. I'll let you know if I don't like

it.
