Members stashman Posted November 12, 2008 Members Share Posted November 12, 2008 Still has the plastic cover (nostly) on the pickguard, and still in the original strings it left the factory in, not a nick or scratch on it. Will listen to all offers.Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Altgtr33 Posted November 12, 2008 Members Share Posted November 12, 2008 Just out of morbid couriousness, what kind of trade's or $ are you lookin' to get out of the supersonic? I'm broke but do have some stuff for trade here: http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2148367 Ben--------Altgtr33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stashman Posted November 12, 2008 Author Members Share Posted November 12, 2008 would trade for another guitar (open to what kind), as to $ for sale, I guess I'll let the market decide - I have all the other guitars I wish to part with up for sale with a price, thought I'd sorta put this one out with trade or offer and see what happens. others for sale are Buscarino, Minarik, and Michael Kelly.

Members XMahkaihX Posted November 12, 2008 Members Share Posted November 12, 2008 If I didnt have mine, I would so snatch this up in a heart beat. I picked one up for $100 two years ago and put $1,000 into it and now its my dream guitar. Anyone who gets this baby is lucky! Bump for a dope ass guitar!

Members Altgtr33 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 If I didn't LOVE my mod'ed EPI LP I'd work out a trade with you. Well, that and even my guitar-tech(old high-school buddy) told me never to get rid of it. And he's got a $3000 custom shop Gibson historic LP, and I swear when he played my Epi LP(after he set it up) it sounded almost exactly the same. Granted, just about any guitar he pick's up he can make sound cool. But, I'd like to think he actually liked the Epi LP too.........he just didn't want to admit it.

Members harrisbquinn Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 this is a squier vista series supersonic....made in japan in the late 90's....they all look like that...its right handed...build quality is as good as some american fenders...with a pup swap that thing would be sick...ive seen a couple go on ebay in the high 300's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Altgtr33 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yeah, with a pup swap and a setup I'm sure this would be a fire-breather. I use to have a 97' Vista Jagmaster(with a JB in the Bridge) and it was a cool guitar. But, at the time nobody here local could ever set it up right(something to due with the 24in. scale or just bad tech work). I remember reading that the guy that came up with squier's vista line got the insperation for the super-sonic when he saw a pic of Jimi Hendrix playing a righty jaguar. I don't know if that's true but it is a cool story. FYI the newer squier jagmaster's are actually better(at least to me) stock now because they have die-cast tuner's and duncan-designed pup's. The only real downfall of the vista's is the tuner's and the not-so-great stock pup's. Ben-------Altgtr33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members orangesix Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 sweet guitar. i have a Traynor YGM-3 I'd be willing to trade for it. I dont have a pic right this moment but it looks like this one:http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-TRAYNOR-YGM-3-VACUUM-TUBE-VALVE-GUITAR_W0QQitemZ150309639822QQihZ005QQcategoryZ10171QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Altgtr33 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Man, I'm still tempted to trade(something). But, kinda know that I'd turn the supersonic into another project. I'd end up needing to get it set-up and I'd change the pup's out too(but, really I don't have the $ to do all that). It would look cool next to my converted squier-into Fender Jag. Kinda like a mirror image(well, upside down and a different color). I will say that the 24in. scale neck's on these guitar's are the best fit for guy's with shorter thin finger's like I've got. Somebody trade for this axe and put me out of my misery already, I'm sure you'll dig it. Ben---------Altgtr33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members stashman Posted November 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 hey don't say that, I was just thinking of tripling my price! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members XMahkaihX Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Well, it does have $1,000+ worth of {censored} into it NOT including the labor by a professional luthier. Graph Tech Ferraglide saddles, Trees, and Nut. Seymour Duncan pickups, Copper wiring/DiMarzio tape throughout whole cavity, Orange Drop Caps, CTS Pots, Switchcraft Switch and Jack, custom made Pickguard (nobody makes them so I had to have a template made), 3 ground wires, Schaller locking tuners, Schaller Strap Locks, Abalone Inlays, added springs, a custom set-up for the Hipshot Tremsetter, Wilkinson Tremolo block/plate, J Bass knobs, stainless steel screws (hate that rust), and my ever so standard K-Swiss sticker on the body. And then after all that, I had the whole thing buffed, waxed, and polished out three times so it would glow under lights. And set-up three times since all the mods so the guitar is all settled in and ready to rock. Lets just say that I have seen them go for $500-$800 on eBay bone stock, and mine is FAR from such. So whatever he was smoking, was definetly great {censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members XMahkaihX Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 I use to have two saved in my favorites (until eBay made the 90 day thing and got rid of them after that) that sold for big bucks. The one was silver sparkle and it went for $685 and $35 shipping, and the blue one was mint like this guys and went for $755 not including the $40 for shipping. I own two so I tend to watch them often. So showing me 2-3 sales on them isnt going to convince me of anything. And like most sales/trades on here need to be...if one doesnt have anything good or helpful to say, or an offer to make on the instrument, why even put a word in? Just stay the hell off the page! The one that sold for $650 seemed like a good price, really. And it doesnt have 1/10 of the work into it that mine does, so a $1,500 offer doesnt seem to crazy when you look at the big picture. Oh and another guy offered $1,200 on here a few weeks back. Another bump for my boy with the bad ass SS! And a bump to me for being 2.KOOL.4.SKOOL.
