Advice needed Deckly D10

Post by Larry Banks »

Thinking about selling/trading my double neck Dekley. I don’t use the C6th… just focusing on learning the E9th neck. Love the tone of the Dekley. Question, would I make a mistake trading to a Mullen S10 or Justice? Don’t want to lose the tone I get from the Dekley. How much should should I sell the Dekley for? Very clean…any advice will be appreciated.

If you don't need the money from selling it, I would just keep it and get another single 10 - that C6th neck will be calling you someday...

I agree with Mike. Deckleys are great guitars, just a little heavy. I have owned 2 of them, and was well pleased with each. They appear to be holding their value. They sound great and are easy to work on.

Dekley

IMHO, Dekleys are perhaps sonically, one of the finest sounding guitars out there with the famous pakawood neck. S-10's can be found in the $1300 range. SD-10's seldom come up for sale.

More Love for Dekely here!
My D10 has sweet tone, both through an amp and direct into a console if you are recording.
Stays in tune and stands up well to the road.
And yup, they are a bit heavy.
