Ballpark Value of Sho Bud LDG

Post by Thomas Bryan Eaton »

Greetings!

Looking to sell my Sho Bud LDG, wondering a ballpark value from people who know better.

It's the later model, square front, NOT rounded, 3 pedals/4 knee levers. Plays and sounds good if not great, probably could use a tune up.

Let me know what you all think!


Many Thanks

*** here's an old picture of me and the guitar... can post more tomorrow, but really just looking for a ballpark figure as I have a friend who's interested in buying it.

Thomas, condition will probably reflect it's value more than anything? FWIW, I just sold one similar for $2100...

Also, knowing what generation PULL system matters. Photo's of the keyhead , pedals and underside will tell the whole story.

For many, an early to mid 70's version with two hole pullers, Gumby keyhead and large pedals will always carry added value over the later series with the 5 hole pullers and pot metal parts model.

These things matter when selling, plus, any buyer is gonna ask anyway...

FYI - unfortunately that pack of camels was smoked in it's entirety that fateful evening in Tulsa some 6 years ago... :D :D :D

I paid $2200.00 for that very same model, in excellent condition, in November 2014. The original p/u had been removed and "new" 705 had been installed which was a real improvement IMO. I love this guitar.
