Guy calls me and says he wants to buy my mim tele and tom delonge guitar.
I do a quick ebay search and see that the values of my guitars in their condition is roughly at around 750 between the two.
this is what id get in return:
or
theyre both Made In japan. the black one is a 94 and the sunburst a 96.
im aiming for the sunburst because it has a mustang bridge and quarter pounders (!!!). (not in that pic).
whatdya guys think?

The sunburst sounds like a sweet deal, but I'd change the pickguard, red tort/pearl is hideous.

My wife was looking over my shoulder and said, "I hate that, the red looks like crap on the sunburst."

the only tort I really like on sunburst is that red from the mid 90s Japanese instruments.
it looks much better in real life than it does in pictures though.

i'd take the black one and ask if he'll throw the QPs in with it.

the black one needs a white/mint/parchment guard.
LOVE the tuxedo look on these. - most people don't.
but tort on black is a nono for me.
...so... how'd it go?

I like them both. I had a CIJ Jazzer that I sold a few years ago. It was one of the nicest I have owned. So I never touched it. Issues.

US currency in PR, yeah. It's basically a state down here.
my guitars together are worth around 750.

Optimistically. But hey, if someone values them at $750 then power to you! I'd definitely go with the black one; sunburst is way overplayed.
Wish people would trade like that locally, fffuuu! Jealous! Enjoy your Jazzy, mate!
