I think you won't loose a dime if you sell them in 10 years time. Sell them before that and you will' date=' after that, I think worst case scenario, you'll break even. The cost of new ones will go up and used prices will follow.
Unless I am mistaken, a brand new R9 was around $3,500 around the year 2000. Now that's a good price on a used one. Today, those older R9s are worth what they cost brand new simply because new R9s have skyrocketed in price. I'm sure prices will continue to go up over the years (if Gibson is still around) and as new prices continue to go up, so will used.[/quote']
Gibson's not going anyware. ; )

A musical instrument is NOT an investment. Period.
I'll buy a guitar because it's limited edition(300 made, like the hot rod LP), but I refuse to buy a guitar, let it sit in the case for 50 years, and then sell it. THAT, is an investment, and a waste of a beautiful instrument.
As long as you play that good old Hot Rod, I guess you can buy it.
I have no problem with Limited Edition guitars, but people need to play them. You gotta give it at least a few "battle scars".
when people buy them just 'cause they'll be worth $400,000 someday... Sigh...Tsk Tsk, what'a waste.

AMEN!
I'm too busy playing to measure milliseconds worth of sustain difference' date=' so it's all good to me.

That would make sense' date=' remember guys, originally they were meant for jazz, so most probably they were also flat (damn, I hate those flat strings).[/quote']
