Need help (possible guitar trade)

drawnQ · 01-19-2008, 10:20 PM

i posted up my gibson sg gothic on craigslist a few days ago for a trade. i stated that i would really only consider trades if it was an ibby 7 - string. my sg has emg 81/85 pups and a few dings. needless to say i got a couple of offers. i need yalls help to get the best value for what i am offering.

offer 1
black ibby 7 string (he thinks rg7132, but i think he meant 7321)
said he bought it a few years ago and it was made in japan
he claims its a model that ibanez redid within the past couple of years - only recently the quality declined.
it has a dimarzio in the bridge and a seymour duncan in the neck

offer 2
1999 ibby rg7421
w/ 7620 neck
dimarzio 7s

offer 3
dean evo7
dimarzio 7s
mahongany body
1/2" maple arch top

i figure some people on this board would know what the best option would be for what i'm looking for.

thanks

7321's were made in korea. Offer 1 doesnt know what they're talking about.

Offer 2 and 3 are solid bets, 3 being probably the better sounding, 2 being the better playing.

Either two or three, but personal preference would lead me towards 2, mostly because I love Ibanez necks.

How much you want for that SG?

i put it up for $650 USD. not sure if i want to send it to puerto rico, these guys have guitars in the same city

unless you had a really cool trade

itsallinmyh3ad · 01-19-2008, 10:53 PM

If I were you, I'd sell it for $650, and add a little cash and buy a new S7320 and put new pickups in it, or buy one used. All those guitars you mentioned don't go up as high as $650. If I had the cash I'd buy it off of you, but last night I ordered a new Viper-400.

Good luck with the trade dude. I'ts a great guitar.

ibznorange · 01-19-2008, 11:49 PM

yeah dude, i paid less than 500 for a nice 7620 with upgraded pickups. id sell it for cash unless you get something really cool else coming up. maybe trade + cash for a uni, or an s7420fm
just financially speaking
good luck man

technomancer · 01-19-2008, 11:58 PM

Yeah the Evo 7 and the RG7420 are worth $400 tops if they're in perfect condition, and it's not hard to find a better deal than that on ebay if you have any patience.

djpharoah · 01-20-2008, 01:30 AM

Like everyone said - just sell it and get the cash to buy something else.

ibznorange · 01-20-2008, 01:55 AM

or at least see if you can work a hondo cash out of em on top of the guitar
