bubs_42 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 OK, I think everything is covered and i'm ready to add a Superpro. Hit me with what you have, i'm not stuck on a color i'll just know it when I see it.
carfish7 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Well, Willie's has one but I don't think you'll like the price, unless I am TOTALLY clueless about what these are going for. They have it listed at $2,250 and it apparently has "a few scratches and a nick in the top".........If you are still interested, I might be able to do the same thing we did on that Daytona though. Never hurts to ask/cajole.Couple NOS ones out there for similar dough, too. One at "Guitars-Etc" ($2,275) and one at "DHR Music Experience" ($2,520). Good luck on your hunt!
Disturber Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 This will be interesting, (puts on tea kettle and pops two in the toaster).

Good luck on your hunt!SuperPros are worth that much IMO but market value seems to be more around $1400-1500.
django49 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Was there not one at the store in SoCal for $1500? Black trans IIRC.
bubs_42 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 Yep, but since its on consignment they won't budge. So you add tax and shipping on top of it. The last 5 have gone for less than 1400, so i'll just wait to see what pops up.
kizanski Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 True, but you're going to pay a premium for trans black.
bubs_42 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 I considered that. I also have to prepare for my little one that is coming sooner than later.
django49 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 A minor plus......I THINK it is a small shop without any national presence, so they most likely would not compound the damage with taxes if shipped out of state. Still, that makes it $1500 plus.I thought I heard it was not stock-----Might have changed pickups(?). That could also be a plus or minus.
bubs_42 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 I have a Custom/CustomCustom Set out of a Superpro. So if that is the case no issues there. I was going to put them in my Sunburst but the route in the neck pocket was not big enough to take a pickup with a cover. That is if it comes down to me buying that one.
tombo Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Lavonne Wagener Music, Savage, MN (952) 890-7288. They have two of them for sale. The burst is the better of the two, but the clear one is owned by the guitar tech there. He would be willing to deal I bit I think.

bubs_42 Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 Thanks but a little rich for my blood. I want to stay under the $1500 as far as I can go. $350?
django49 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I must have had a bad day........Sunday I could NOT get sounds I liked out of mine......It may be a one-off (NAMM with factory piezo). Thought I would send you a note, but had to give it another try yesterday. For whatever reason, it was back in my good graces. Maybe the amp?But, will let you know if I DO get back into a longer lasting state of mind where it becomes vulnerable.
stratacus Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Toronto CL $1400: http://toronto.en.cr...3146708873.htmlNew Hampshire CL Superpro Custom. Quilt, Ebony $1800, listing active since June 22nd: http://nh.craigslist...3094570943.html
django49 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Whoa......For quilt and ebony like that I would reconsider my bid limit! (I am NOT looking for one now).
bubs_42 Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 That one is smoking hot but it does nothing for me. Dunno why, most likely the Aztec+Gold Hardware.
kizanski Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 That one is smoking hot but it does nothing for me. Dunno why, most likely the Aztec+Gold Hardware. Seller is using my patented photograph-the-guitar-in-the-sunset method. Makes the flame pop. Never fails (if done right - this guy needs help, though). Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Example 4 It even works with gold. You get the idea...
bubs_42 Posted July 28, 2012 Author Posted July 28, 2012 Thanks for the offers so far and I have replied to everyone. I haven't found one yet so keep the offers coming
