Its funny how in the late 90s all that abalone would have indicated a $5000+ guitar. If you saw something like that it was shockingly flashy and you knew the guitar was about as exotic as one could get. Now its almost certainly an indication of a cheap import. Its almost rare to see that sort of purfling on a high end guitar now because its on 50 guitars in every GC.
I've got a chance to trade something worth around $500 for a used bubinga iron label s8 with the stock d-activators... If its in decent condition, I'd be crazy not to do it right? It would be for resale as I am not an 8 player. What do you guys think? Could I move it relatively fast on here/Craigslist/eBay?
