Nevermind. Not looking for a Standard. Gonna be friggin' happy with what I got for once after playing the guitar I was going to sell to finance another one. Thought "What the hell are you doing? This is a great guitar.".

Sorry to be such a bother. :huh:

I'm betting these things are priced outta my range these days, but you never know. I'd prefer the mid-nineties style medium over the vintage carve any day.

PMs work great for me, or email: bob dot russom at gmail dot com

I'm guessing:

$1000 - 1200 for USA Mahogany finish

$1500 - 1800 for USA flamy top Custom

$5000+ for 4 digit

There's a nice '97 Standard Custom on ebay right now (no affiliation)... link

Anybody here snag that one? I wonder if that was a BIN, or if eBay just doesn't let you see bids after auction end anymore.

That one was a "Best Offer" of $1350 with seller accepting about $350 less than original asking price.

Decent price! I remember seeing it at $1700, but paid it little attention...because it was $1700.

Agreed... being a '97 there's also an excellent chance it has the medium neck profile desired by the OP... :huh:

I recently came across the L&M "Guitar Galleria" catalog that featured that exact guitar (and a TV Finished Korina Vector that later suffered a broken headstock).

Really cool guitar.

Yea no kidding, I was thinking of throwing in a $1.5 offer but I figure he wouldn't go for it.

I've learned this lessons a few times now ... sometimes in life you just have to dive in and do it. Think too much and ends up convincing yourself not to do it.

$1350 to me is close to a steal. I've been watching Standards only for a few years now and haven't seen one like that sell on Ebay for less than $1500.
