Ibanez PGM 100 (blue one, reissue) Price check!

[JohnSykes]

What do you think?

All original with all the stuff, case candy and OHSC.

 

[dethyr]

PLEASE, give me more information on this, I am looking to maybe buy one at tax return time. Could you post some links and info? I was eyeing up both used models and... even a couple of the Japanese copies kicking around. Must have info!!!

Is that the one with the faux f holes?

 

[drewiv]

I believe I got $950 or so for mine when I sold it last fall. Very nice condition with some wear on the Cosmo Black bridge.

It's this one.

I think I got 1100 or 1200 for mine a year and a half ago. Mine was mint with all case candy.

Going to pick up a PGM of some variety when I find the exact model that I want. I would LOVE to find a 500 or a 301 eventually when I have coin. I almost pulled the trigger on one last week but opted for the UV70p instead.

Man i thought they were a lot more expensive to be honest!

As much as I love PG, these guitars are such a rip-0ff seeing as they're pretty much just a high-end RG (Plus I prefer the white reverse headstock model)

The same can be said for several Ibanez sig models though right? Can't say I don't love RGs though. I am an Ibanez fanboy from top to bottom haha

New they were $1999. Im not sure what they go for now a days.

I think the price has come down a little the last 5 years or so since Paul switched to the fireman. I mean, the PGM wasn't hugely popular to start.

 

[JohnSykes]

Do you think there is a big difference between a PGM100 and a PGM30 ???? Or even between those and a RG 770DX?

 

[Metlupass2]

PGM 30 is Korean crap dude. The difference with the PGM and 770 would be the lack of pickguard and tone pot.

Cool, thanks man.

But isnt there a japanese version of the PGM30?

Yes, PGM300 is the original Japanese model. There is a hard tail version (same color scheme) PGM301, also Japanese made. I have a 301, great guitar. Hard to find a good hardtail RG, this fit the bill.

Also, the 770 reissue is a fantastic guitar.

 

[Metlupass2]

Don't waste your money on a PGM30. They might even be made in Indonesia.

There's always PGMs on ebay. Shop around and you can find a good deal if you figure out which one you want. I've had a 301 and a 300RE. Both were great guitars.

 

[ibenhad]

I can say that the PGM 300 is an upgrade from a stock RG. Have both and they are different. Have owned almost all the RG series and the sig models IMHO are a little more refined in the details department.



This has his autograph and a self portrait in black marker on the back of the headstock. Neck is flatter and wider than any 550 I have played.

 

[JohnSykes]

That one looks great.

I really like it in white, but i already have a white Charvel with maple neck, so im inclined to buy the blue one. I wish it had maple fretboard as well.
