GuitarJunkie Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I love when this happens. Whenever I list stuff for sale locally, I always get offers to trade stuff like my 1962 Ampeg Mercury for a Line 6 practice amp, or my faded Les Paul Standard for some pointy shredder axe from china. Well, I put my Slash Goldtop up for sale locally on a few of the used classified sites. At the bottom, I put "Would only consider trades for another Gibson of similar value". So far I've been offered a Taylor T5, a PRS Hollowbody I (plus $500), and an ES-339 with a Bigsby added. The first two are not unreasonable (although not Gibsons) and at least I got one Gibson offer. But here's the kicker... I figure there has to be a lot of similar stories out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffster Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hey my central air is a Gibson, maybe the go cart is a Gibson brand. In browsing for Les Pauls on eBay I saw this one. Broken neck repaired which is fine, it happens but I would not go as far as "you could not ask for a better break" http://cgi.ebay.com/04-Gibson-les-paul-Standard-Honey-REPAIRED-seymours_W0QQitemZ170300844172QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item170300844172&_trksid=p4011.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've just had the usual. Like when I sold my SG, the price was $1,200 and I got a few offers for $500 or $600. One guy offered me his Epi Les Paul straight up for my Gibson LP Standard. Get bent, you idiots! whats a custom built go cart? A go cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarJunkie Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Guy just e-mails back... "Sorry, are you looking to trade exclusively for guitars?" What part of "Would only consider trades for another Gibson of similar value" was unclear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
