Kineman Karma Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hey people, I have the opportunity to buy this 1996 LP STUDIO for $1100 AUD. Please tell me what you think. Yes or No and Why? Here she is, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Well, on the picture looks great. Knobs are changed (I do prefer top hats so it's better if you ask me). If it plays as good as it looks - I say take it. The price looks good too, although I am not sure how those go in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btoth76 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Nice wine red LP. I would take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookieman15061 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 More important is what do you think? Studios are great guitars without all the bling. I own a studio deluxe and love it. It really comes down to how it feels in your hands and how it sounds to your ears. Anything like string height, intonation or truss rod adjustments are easy fixes for a qualified tech. If it feels right and you can afford, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versatile Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Nice guitar with a ding or two and 14 years old Might be worth a haggle You can get a new one for about the same price V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 It's hard to see the guitar's actual condition with the out of focus pic. I can say it looks like a wine red Studio and that's about it. Studio's are nice. Whether this guitar is worth $1100 AUS is question that requires better pics. As it's been said - what matters is what you think of it, and if you think the guitar is worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StijnV Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I love red wine and gold; thats the color of my guitar. The thing about asking people if they would or would not buy a item is suggestive. We will not be the people playing it; you have to make that decision. As for the amount try ebay and see what a LP Studio is going for. At the current conversion rate thats 1078 USD for that guitar; he wants way too much by US Standards. This guitar model nowadays costs 1786 AUD, VAT excluded.

Stijn Vergeest Gibson Europe Customer Service 00800-4GIBSON1 00800-44427661 www.gibson.com service.europe@gibson.com So even if the US does not use a VAT, if your a manufacturer here (US) and ship over there,they pay the VAT? That's interesting. Nice guitar by the way, I have one and its great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
