2011 Vintage Guitar Price Guide

Mod note 10pm, 1/11/11: Please remember that questions of value are limited to supporting members, so the OP can only give out value info to supporters. It's not his doing, so please don't blame him if you're not a supporting member and your value question doesn't get answered. Thank you

I saw a thread like this on a guitar forum and I didn't see one here so I thought I would start one.

I got the 2011 Vintage Price Guide and since they aren't super cheap and most people just want a price or two just list what you want to know the price for and I will tell you what they say.

Keep in mind it seems like the vintage prices are still pretty high even though it's a soft market and the newer stuff seems to be a bit underpriced. I think the newer stuff is selling higher right now because the vintage prices are forcing people to the newer stuff. Just a theory but if the price on the newer stuff seems low ebay might be a better judge.

So let me know what you want to know.

For some reason they don't break out fretless so I am going to give you the standard price and I guess it would vary to some degree?

$1950-$2500

Would a pre-Dallas 1980 Schecter be in there? The one modelled after a 50's Precision.
Also, a 1969 Hagstrom 8-string

Thanks, man.

Tougher one because of the finish. Since the finish is taken out of the equation I will use the lowest prices which is $5000-$6100. Removing the finish will normally cut that in half but that's a pretty desirable bass so it might not cut it by quite that much.

'67 Gibson Melody Maker bass (pelham blue)?

$1350-$1550

No mention of color making a difference but that color is typically desirable I believe.
