brad1 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Is there anyway you can post pics of the Genesis? IMO, you are giving up too much for that one guitar. But the decision has to be yours. If you really want the guitar, and do not care about giving up that small collection you have than make the trade. Value is in the mind of the beholder.

brad1 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Looks like a really nice guitar. I don't know what you should do. Like I said, I wouldn't do it. But then, I don't want a Genesis. And You DO want a Genesis. So you need to decide for yourself if YOU think it's worth it or not. Anybody else want to give an opinion? What do y'all think?

Dan41 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 thanks again for the fast reply. i know it seem i'm giving alot of guitar for this one, but the peavey I don't use anymore, the granada les paul same, the horner with the floyd i don't shred anymore but I can use my two real fender strat and the partcaster same as the 2 first one I don't use anymore and the acoustic the same and i still have other guitar i use. like my 2 real fender strat, my Godin LG Signature serie and 2 Epiphone, my 1960 tribute and my classic one. and if the Genesis look better than the picture it worht near 700$ according to the blue book and all my guitar i put on my ads worth almost the same. i will decide tonight if I decide to do the trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eggs Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 It looks in fantastic condition for a 30+ year old geet Dan, I'm not sure if the reissue is coming out with such a beautifully 'aged' finish (which IS truly handsome), & I have no idea whether your items would readily garner +$500 (the reported price of the reissue) if sold separately where you are... BUT, that is one mojo packed geet, so I'm glad you followed your heart & picked up this amazing piece of Epi history & just in case you missed this thread: http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/81917-epiphone-genesis-reissue-review-demo/page__view__findpost__p__1120619 EDIT: The streetprice on the reissues actually looks like being $500 PLUS $89 for the very cool hardcase!

eggs Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Sorry, Stu..... http://www.epiphone.com/News/Features/Features/2012/Limited-Edition-Genesis-Deluxe-PRO.aspx WOW... I was relying on Brian's, ex JimR's, advice throughout his thread... But news on this reissue just keeps getting better I should have known that I could rely on your 'German Precision' Pete Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
