I think $650.00 was the most I ever spent. Not counting building. I have done way over that little by little but I wouldn't say that counts.

£750 for an Epiphone Elitist Dot, in 2003.

I instantly regretted it, and then about a week later, Coda started blowing them out (and the even nicer Elitist Casinos which are rare as hen's teeth now) for £350.

It was about the biggest n00b move I've ever made.

900 new 65RI mustang
800 vintage 1964 mustang

I forget what my avri jaguar cost...I know 7 guitars got sold to fund it though

*edit* 1099.99

Electric - Japanese Jaguar £750 when they were first released
Acoustic Steel String - Jasmine £350 short lived sister company to Takamine. Lovely guitar. Had an issuing with the bridge, so replaced it. Sounded class after
Acoustic Clasical - Hokada £150 super cheap. Surprisingly good for the price. Nice wooden bindings

£320 for a Jagstang (sold)
£300 for my '72ish Bronco.

£100, on a cheap PRS-copy that me n the lady went twos on. actually, its the only guitar ive ever paid anything for. all the rest have been presents.

I paid $3599 for this R9

£650-ish for a Gibson SG Special. It sounded nice but had that clubby neck and top-heaviness that SGs are plagued with. The finish/build quality was so-so and it put me off Gibsons altogether.

I've probably spent a bit more on my second-hand CIJ Jazzmaster if you include the replacement trem and pickups. Unlike the SG, that's a keeper though.

£1500 on a rickenbacker 620/12

lasted three days. Hated it and sent it back

£300 for the Batwing was the most until this year; £350 for my Epiphone Riviera. Kind of odd now I think about it. Even my Japanese Jaguar only cost me £200.

£850 for the Siena burst USA Strat new in December 2008, with a bequest from my mum. Prices went up in Feb.

£850-ish for my 66 Jaguar.

$750 for my MIJ '66 Classic Jaguar. Paid pretty close to that for my '72 Twin and for my Aerodyne Jazz Bass.

£570 for a new Ric 620 in 2005. Crazy days.

Paid 400 quid for mid nineties reissue CIJ Jazzmaster in 1999.

Still have it!

900 for my AVRI jaguar in OTM, sold it for that much two years later, now..... now they are worth a bit more, especially in OTM. i still miss that guitar, but i love my dog more, so it was worth it.

£505 for my Aerodyne Tele.

$1,000 for my Ric 330 when they had a secret sale at musicians friend. I kind of regret not spending the extra $300 to get the 360; both guitars were on sale at dealer cost.

Before that it was my Gibson LP Studio, which was $850 with my employee discount at guitar center. I traded it for a vox tempest xii a few years ago. Miss that one kind of, I intend to make room for a nicer lp in my future though.

Me too

Either the $1850 for my les paul standard in bahama blue, or the $1100 + sg classic traded for my 72 les paul gold top. By internet standards I overpaid for both, but by calgary standards (where GOOD gear is rare), I did quite well, and if I had to, both would be an EASY sale.

$2k for my 1969 Fender Maverick. Also paid $2k for the 1966 Jaguar I had and sold to fund the Maverick.
