Any Guitar nuts? I have a guitar to sell any rough idea how much I could charge for it?

Question

The make is a Vintage hollowbody electric- VSA555 Series.

Some tech stuff.

Body - Maple
Top - Maple Laminate
Neck - Maple Set-Neck
Fingerboard - Rosewood
Scale - 24.75"/ 628mm
Frets - 22
Neck Inlays - Abalone/ Pearloid Block
Tuners - Individual Gold Tulip Button
Bridge - Tune-O-Matic with Stop Bar Tailpiece
Pickups - Alnico Double Coil x 2
Hardware - Gold
Controls - 2 Volume/ 2 x Tone/ 3-Way Toggle

The best features of the guitar, are the lovely inlaid pearl blocks on the fretboard, and the colour, a kind of fisheye sunburst, which I had never seen on a guitar before I bought it, and after searching for ages I have still never seen on another guitar. I have had it for a while but is my baby, and there is not so much as a scratch or scuff on it, it's pristene.

Answer 1

Here's your definitive answer:
These instruments currently produced in Asia. Distributed by John Hornby Skewes & Co., Ltd. of Garforth (Leeds), England.

The Vintage trademark is the brand name of U.K. distributor John Hornby Skewes & Co., Ltd. These guitars are based on mostly popular American designs at entry-level prices. For more information and specific models and prices, contact JHS directly.
GOOD LUCK!
PS Ebay is NOT a great place to establish value.

Answer 2

I have good experience of the guitar market. Vintage instuments are good quality but unfortunately fairly budget. Most are under £200 new. If you sold this vintage you'd probably get £100 max, considering age, appearance and condition. So it's £100 vs sentimental value.

Hope this helps

Answer 3

For a brand new one you'd be looking at £250-£350, I'd say that for a second hand one in mint nick it's be around the £100-£200 mark depending on age, ware sound etc.

If you're advertising it n it's sentimental then put it out for £200 and hold out for the nearest offer.

If it's your baby tho, for what you're gonna get for it I probably wouldn't bother selling it.

Answer 4

Check Ebay. You could list it, and set the reserve price so high that it will not sell (like a million dollars), then you will get a good idea. I would appreciate if you could send me a picture, and I am a "guitar nut", so I'd really like to at least see it. What is the brand?

Answer 5

Something around 200 pounds, but dont be too suprised for anything less , say 150.
