My yamaha acoustic. It was nearly $800. i fucking starved my ass for that thing.

$1900, Les Paul Standard in 2005 special ordered (not by me) with aged hardware and then sold on consignment at GC.



Got an AV '57 Strat in 2001 but they were priced in the $900s at that time, so its probably appreciated a lot more than the LP.

7 hundo for a modded and refinished 66 mustang, but part of that was covered by trading a guitar at profit so I felt like a cool fucking dude

7 hundo for a 69 blackfaced twin reverb.

I don't ever want to cross that 7 hundo line.

I spent a little over 2 large on my Taylor 614ce. I had wanted it for years and could never afford it. My wife bought it for me as a wedding present.

The guitar shop gave me a good deal on it since they went for a lot more and I got it in a limited blue color and 3 piece maple back. My Taylor is from 2001 and has the hard case with the pink plush interior. They went to black a couple of years later.

I doubt I would ever spend that much again but Taylors are quality and worth the investment.

I ordered an EGC five months ago. ($2280) Paid in three installments though.

Next purchase might be a full length mirror.

lol 280 for the first mim strat i ever bought-- i cant imagine paying a thousand dollars for a guitar that is still going to sound like my shitty playing no matter how much it costs

The most I've spent on a guitar was £450 for my Fender Baja Tele. After a while I just felt uncomfortable playing it live because I tend to be quite rough, so I sold it. The most expensive guitar I currently own is my Squier VM Jag, which was around £270.

I payed about $1000 (converted) for my new USA Standard Stratocaster in 1993.

£1250 for my Jazzmaster if you don't include the ridiculously expensive shipping from the states and comedy tax.

For a new guitar it will be just over £700 I paid for my Strat earlier this year.

How's the strat working out Chris?

I don't think I've ever spent more than 500 on a whole guitar - probably a new Epi Sheraton many years ago (my de-facto only guitar selling regret in fact).

I've probably spanked more than that on buying guitars and doing them up and modding and stuff.

Still in love with the Strat, its all I play at the moment.

I also have sheraton regrets, rose tinted nostalga glasses I think though. Playing new ones don't sound like the sounds I have in my memories

$1300 CAD for a 2013 gibson SG standard that I picked up right before the big price drop. (msrp was $2199US, now it's considerably lower)

*facepalm*

£800 for a AVRI strat that was sneakily imported into the UK from the states (guy was selling a few).

$650 for a used SG Standard that I ended up not getting along with.

$700 for 72 Tele custom reissue back in 2002. It's been by my side for every single guitar-related thing I've ever done.

Acoustic: £550 for my (new) K.Yairi acoustic.

Electric: New - £380ish for an Epiphone LP Custom about 8 years ago or so.
Used - £300 (i think) for my RI Mustang. From the classifieds on here.

My 1966 Jaguar was £1500.

I don't regret it for a second.

I think it was a 72's RI Jap Tele Thinline I bought back in 1999 for about £550, the only guitar I ever bought new. Unfortunatley when I moved back to London a couple years later I had to sell it...... still, managed to feel better when I picked up a Jap Jazzmaster & Korean Sheraton for £150 each.

£1275 or so for my '66 jag.

Stewart and Mike, they're great prices you paid for those!
