Xaj Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 That guitar was around the 500 dollar mark in the US back in January. At the same time, I saw one for sale for 650 euros which was quite frankly ridiculous. I really have no idea how many guitars were made of this particular model but it comes up often enough on ebay and the like. Just beware of potential fakes. One word of advice though. If I remember correctly, the original electronics weren't great and many people changed the pickups and electronics, and most went with SD Alnico Pro-II like Slash. Therefore, they are asking for too much money now adays on account of the pickups and whatever upgrades they did. I just think that anything above 500 euros is too much for it anyway. I don't know if anyone else has an update on values but please do chime in if you do. For further info on this guitar check out the Epiphone Wiki: Slash Signatures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4 Dimi Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 thank you very much! ill think about it... does someone else know about how many were made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midiman56 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 does someone else know about how many were made? I'm curious as to what difference it makes how many were made? If you're going for the rare/collectability factor, you're barking up the wrong tree with an Epiphone unless it's one of the vintage models anyway. Just listen to Xaj on this one: there are probably as many counterfeits of these Slash guitars as there are genuine ones! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
