MSA Classic D-10 Lacquer (8+4) Value?
Posted: 15 Mar 2011 7:45 pm
I bought a very nice MSA Classic D-10 (8+4) from Chuck Martin here about three years ago through this forum. It is a very nice PSG. I got it mainly to interest my kids though I also wanted to play around with it myself a bit. It has a couple of cracks that were there when I bought it which have never effected the playability of the guitar. Chuck told me the cracks hadn't changed in four years before I bought it. I've had the for three more years and I have seen no change either. It is a great instrument but is simply not being used so it has become mainly a pretty thing to look at in the corner of the living room. (If anyone is playing something around here, it is usually a six-string hollow body or a piano). I'm thinking it may be time to let this MSA move on and be properly played by someone else.
I haven't followed pricing very closely for a while. This has always struck me as a pretty safe place to ask a question and get an honest answer, so what's a fair price on a PSG like this these days? I can get a bit of an idea about a Lacquer MSA D-10, but then to factor in the cracks. What do you think?
Below is the old ad which Chuck posted from which I ultimately bought this. As far as I'm aware, the PSG is in the exact same condition as when I bought it (except that it could use a new set of strings). I have only set it up once and left it that way (always climate controlled and smoke free). If I do put it up for sale, it would include a case that isn't beautiful, but worked fine when the PSG was shipped to me.
