myspace.com/jessenoah Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 hmmmmm only about 40 miles away from me should I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Go for it, Jesse. It's about time you got yourself a decent guitar. It seems cheap to me, though. It's a '94 and I think it should be in the $3,500 range...if not more. If you (or anybody else here) goes for it, check for any neck repairs.

Slogold Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 awesome... man did you buy any new toys in your last trip? Hey TG did you check out the other one I emailed you?

Slogold Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 hmmmmmonly about 40 miles away from me should I? Snatched it before it's too late. I just bought a LP Custom 68 RI last time so I'm broke at the moment. If not,that R9 is already mine. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey man, just read the pm... strange I never got the mail telling me there was a private! That guitar is nice... I really like those sparkle finishes, that SG is no exeption, she is beautiful...

GuitarJunkie Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Saw this on another LP forum earlier today. It's a scam. The guy stole the photos and gives you the whole "I'm out of town, but send me the money and I'll send you the guitar" pitch. I'm going to go look for the other thread now.

GuitarJunkie Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Here's the thread... http://www.mylespaul.com/forums/historics-reissues/25405-need-input-94-r9.html A couple of selected quotes... It's a scam. Too bad. It was advertised on San Francisco Craigslist. I wrote the guy to go play it' date=' and here's the reply. Hello, i still have the guitar and I want to make this sale very easy and safe, as i am out the country because i work in US Air Force and i am gone almost all the time. Currently the guitar is at one of the Online Outpost stores in NY, one of the best eBay selling services.I am sure you heard about it. If you want to buy it, i can deliver it at your location and give you a 10 days inspection period to decide if you want to keep it after you test it. Let me know.. Thank you, Narcis As they say, if it seems to good to be true, it usually is. Oh well.[/quote'] Also... It's a scam for sure' date=' that guitar has been sold much more than that, it's possible that sell you so cheap...here is the link: 1994 Gibson Les Paul '59 Reissue Flame Top Historic R9 - eBay (item 270303221877 end time Nov-23-08 20:00:00 PST) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FennRx Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 How come people think they can get a fast sell when they put Rare or Very Rare in the ad' date=' nothing rare about this guitar.[/quote'] relative to other R9s, it is somewhat rare. maybe not brazz or Stinger rare, but uncommon still. The pics appear to be of a "monster top" Historic of the mid-late 90s. these guitars dont come up for sale nearly as often as other Historics, and they tend to command much higher prices on the used market- its rarity is more in its collectability than in its production number (which would still be less than today's R9). whereas a 07 cherry R9 might fetch $3800 on a very good day, a 90s "monster top" could easily pull over $4k....nothing like selling used for more than you paid new.
