LPguitarman Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Too rich for my blood. I don't care who signed it or played, a guitar shouldn't cost that much. 3k at the most and that's pushin' it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swleary Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Damn that's alittle much.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Some plastic surgeon or Wall Street banker will buy it, put it in a glass display case, and wall mount it in his office/den, never to be played. That auction is a F'ing joke and so are those guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 What evol said. Those things are collector's pieces or investments, not players - especially the run of 25 that are signed. I think when **** Dale comes around again I'm going to get him to sign the back of the headstock of my Strat. Nothing special about that guitar (value wise) except that I love the thing and it'd be cool to have his sig on the back to look at while playing so I say to myself, "Oh... right!"

I don't care who signed it or played' date=' a guitar shouldn't cost that much. 3k at the most and that's pushin' it...[blink'] I've always considered anything over $2,000 to be rediikulous.

Shnate McDuanus Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I've always considered anything over $2' date='000 to be rediikulous.[/quote'] Speaking from personal experience, I don't own a guitar that went for any more than $700 street price. I suppose that $2,000 is kind of a lot of money for a guitar, but realistically I can definitely imagine a few instances where an expense over that would be appropriate...not for my lifestyle, however. Certainly not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I would spend 5K tops on a guitar. Not a cent more. And that would be a perfect guitar, and even then I would try lots of guitars under that price first and then buy the 5K guitar. Right now for me 2500ish is a good figure, above it, it's not likely I would pay for the thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I would spend 5K tops on a guitar. That's about the top of my comfort zone too. Lotsa guitars out there in the area of $3k that I would buy. $4k, there's a handful. $5k, yeah, that's just not in the cards for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveinspain Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Well it was signed and played by Jimmy Page but still.... Way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 That's ridiculous. I am looking at getting a 335, and 3 grand seems F$*%ing ridiculous, but I'll probably end up with one. I don't even see me spending 54,000 on guitars total! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
