Actually, I don't have a problem. I play them every chance I get. ( At least I don't think that's a problem, except when I forget to pick up my wife from work )
Seriously though, it's a solid offer, it's in the current price range for a LPC. It shouldn't be hard to find a replacement.So I got a message from the guy who sold me this guitar almost exactly 5 years from today. Basically he said he wants to buy the guitar back. He also told me this long story about how this was his dream guitar and it was given to him by his dying mother many years ago. Also says he sold it because his business was failing at the time and he needed the money. The offer was $4.5k (I paid $2.9k in Feb 2017). I politely declined the offer since this guitar means a lot to me at this point. Kinda feel bad but I don't really know what else to do or say. I'm assuming the story he told me was true and have no way to verify it. Anyone else ever experience something like this?
This is a difficult situation, I’ve had to deal with it a few times. That is a pretty good offer!Seriously though, it's a solid offer, it's in the current price range for a LPC. It shouldn't be hard to find a replacement.
If this is the one, I wouldn't sell it back.
But I'd sure give him priority if I ever considered selling it.
This isn't a toy. It is a creative lifeline!I'm addicted to my LP Custom and I just can never get tired of it. This model is a 2011 I believe. It's been my number one since I got it 3 years ago. Just an awesome guitar all around. Neck is perfect. Action isn't too low or too high. Pick-ups are high output and have a nice warm feeling. I want another Custom at some point. I wish they still made the Custom Lite.
Been playing it for a good 2 hours a day since the pandemic. Working from home gives me extra time for toys! :]

Follow your gut. If it says this is the one, keep it and don't feel bad about it. There are guitars I'd like to have back but I've never once contacted someone I sold them to and ask to buy it back. If one of them pop up for sale, then it was meant to be to bring it back home again.
