I wish I had...

Post by Elwood »

...bid on this musicman
musicman on ebay

Here's a few other I would have been tempted by if I was in the market:

sig. S-500

Skyhawk


S-500

It's cool knowing players can get the real ones for not a lot of cash . Though it's gotta make a seller crazy sometimes when the market dips real low. I'd expect that Musicman to sell at twice what it did .

Wow. I though the last couple I found were good deals.

The double-whammy for me with eBay bargains is that my local shop bases their trade-in offers on completed eBay listings. One or two low-ball sales can make it impractical for me to trade gear. I was seriously considering taking my minty-clean '99 L-1500 in for trade fodder this weekend, until I saw that a couple had sold on eBay this summer for under $600.

Yea I agree. I use to have a S-500 and Skyhawk. I loved them both. My next guitar will probably be a Comanche though. But to the original poster. I dont think you can go wrong with any of those guitars

It was a '76 Stingray I guitar, and went for $380.
