Members sleewell Posted November 10, 2010 Members Share Posted November 10, 2010 Given the current market for used gear please tell me if you think either of these guitars are priced fairly and also which one you would purchase. 1 - http://cgi.ebay.com/2001-Paul-Reed-Smith-Singlecut-PRS-Single-Cut-w-OHSC-/220691573817?pt=Guitar&hash=item33623e2c39 2 - http://cgi.ebay.com/PRS-2001-Singlecut-Black-Pre-Lawsuit-/110606198136?pt=Guitar&hash=item19c0a4a578 they are basically the same guitar; one has silver hardware and one has gold. i'm guessing it would cost more than the difference to upgrade to gold hardware but if i am wrong please let me know. the one with silver hardware has been listed and relisted for about a month now with no takers, i've contacted the seller and he refuses to lower price - which is fine. the one with gold hardware has been up for about 10 days. thanks, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slashfacepalm Posted November 10, 2010 Members Share Posted November 10, 2010 I don't think the prices are that bad, but my friend got a mint PRS CU24 for $1400. As we all know, PRS holds more value if the guitar is in better cosmetic condition. Is 2001 the only year you're interested in? It'd help to get some background info on what you're looking into. If you are set on purchasing one of these, however, be sure to go through eBates to get cash back and make sure you're signed up for eBay bucks.

Members sleewell Posted November 10, 2010 Author Members Share Posted November 10, 2010 i am not concerned for the year so much as i am with finding a reasonably priced/good shape prs singlecut, i dont like the shorter scale of the sc 245 so anything before they started making those is fine. my budget is around 1500 but that being said i dont want to overpay in this buyer's market.

Members slashfacepalm Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Here's an SC in the classifieds around your price range. He doesn't disclose the scale length, however. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?t=2701862 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sleewell Posted November 12, 2010 Author Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 thanks for the find and remembering this thread. i'm kinda leaning towards a stop tail, and i love the 10 top but not sure about green. good reference point for pricing, thanks!!
