EuroAussie Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Is it a standard, studio or special ? It looks to me like the studio as it doesnt have the binding or the bling. Can anyone confirm or otherwise ? Amazingly warm, sweet tone, great track also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 . Not sure on that one. No binding - - but the bridge has two ribbons, and there's a decorated pickguard as well. Not sure about studio, but maybe a special run or order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuroAussie Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Its a pity, I really like to look of this Jumbo.

ryanfender Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Elderly just had a j-150. It's still on their website but on hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Is $1560 a reasonable price for a 10 year old J-150 in very good shape ? Probably yes, what do you boys think for those who have more experience with the jumbo ? Would be great to take advantage of the current exchange rate between czech crown and US dollar, but I know most likely I will get this model sometime down the line, after Mrs EA no new guitar 12 month moritorium expires. This is actually one of the extremely rare times where I would consider buying unplayed. Combination of very reputable dealer like Elderly, combined with a competitive exchange rate. If I bought this guitar and didnt like it, I could sell it locally in a second and still make around 25-50% profit. A new SJ-200 retaisl here for around $4500. Maybe its not a bad time to get into the guitar trading business ... B) Elderly just had a j-150. It's still on their website but on hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
