Members hardtdc Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 For a MIJ version in great shape, I'd pay $350 in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members zenbu Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 by Japanese...you mean Japanese Fender? Not rare here, but thats a great price. Lots of makers build/built that type of guitar in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a Fender or some other brand? $350 is a GREAT price for a used Fender MIJ '69 Thinline!As Zenbu said, there are other brands of Japanese-made copies out there...

Members BootRoots Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 thats a pretty good score. I got my MIM 69RI a few years back for about 450 with a HSC. A lot of folks say the MIJ ones are better guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Karma1 Posted December 3, 2008 Members Share Posted December 3, 2008 That sounds like a good price to me. I recently bought a new MIM 69 Thinline, and the sticker price in the store was around $800. After some dealing, I got it for $650 out the door w/ gig bag. This one is a special edition model in white w/matching headstock, white pearl pickgard, and maple fingerboard. But the price is consistent for for new MIM Thinlines I've seen elsewhere. In general, Japanese Fenders are valued higher than Mexican ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
