martin6string · 03-31-2010, 11:21 AM

VOS?

I'd say $2000-2200 on the used market.

Dazza · 03-31-2010, 12:52 PM

$2000-$2200 is fair, and these days they can be found closer to the $2000 mark.Plenty on ebay and it's a soft market.I just got an 09 R7 with BK Stormy Monday pu's for $2150 all in.

Thanks, I'm pretty chuffed.I saw the ebay listing, sent a message asking for pictures (seller mistakenly listed before uploading pics) and 10 minutes later the deal was done.I think it was listed for just over an hour.Shipped free in 2 days and just arrived at my mates' in Miami.He'll enjoy it until I get there next week to pick up my cruise gig.
I was looking for another Historic and passed on a lovley tobacco R8 local for $2000 Canadian, another member here picked it up.I have an R8 so an R7 is a great companion.R9's are often stunning, but as a fulltime gig guitar they're too much of an investment for constant travel use.
Lots of deals out there right now, I'd just hate to be a seller.I've seen so many relisted 2 or 3 times, R7's especially.

Yeah, sounds like you made out well. Enjoy it

VastHorizon · 03-31-2010, 03:04 PM

You passed on this R8?!

Dazza · 03-31-2010, 03:36 PM

I believe so, in Welland was'nt it ? Emailed back and forth a bunch of times making up my mind.Quite the beauty but having a cherry R8 already made me wait it out.So you got yourself a great guitar at a great price,and I finally got an R7 as I intended, also at great price.We've done good.

I appreciate the input fellas.

Just sold my 2005 non-VOS with double cream Duncans, also mint, for $2000 shipped. I think $2200 is starting to get a bit high for GT's since R8's are going for the $2200-$2300 range. If its a dark back you might get a tad more since there are less of them.
