Guest Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Hi everyone does anyone own or know anything about 1980's PR-300's there is one for sale for 999 Swedish krona ($140) Just trying to figure out if it is worth driving a two hour round trip to take a look at it at that price.... This is the actual guitar in the photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianh Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Joe, the VG price guide lists a 1992 to 2000 PR-200 (AKA EA-200) spruce-top dreadnought satin finish, mahogany back and sides, natural finish valued at $150/$225 USD for low/high excellent condition. There's a 1984 to 2000 PR-350 acoustic flatop, mahogany body for $200/$250 USD for low/high excellent condition. Also a PR-350 CE (cutaway version of the 350) valued at ~$75 more. No mention of a PR-300 though. From Walter Carter's Epiphone History book (which does not show every price list ever printed), the PR-350 shows up consistently from 1989 to 1995 when the book was last published. The cheaper PR-200 doesn't show up until 1992 and continues on until the last publish date as well. Assuming it's a PR-350 of some flavor (there were several available finishes and an optional mfr-installed pickup in addtion to the cutaway option) and it's in good condition and playable, it looks like $140 is good price. With an HSC, it would be even better. Cheers, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thawk Dean Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 A few months ago I purchased a 1991 PR350E for $125 US. It is in excellent condition except that the e-pickup isn't working. It didn't matter that the p/u wasn't working because I have no intentions of getting an amp for it. Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
