Mint? Something inside me says about $1200 or so.

Did you see that at GC.com? There's a similar one for 1099....while lusting after that one I saw a Plum USA SC1 with a Gator case for 799....Sold! Got pics texted to me, looks mint and has the hang tags. If you are patient and look daily there are deals to be had. For 900 there's a Slime green US San Dimas with a nailbomb bridge, mint in Mpls Craigslist...danyeo":24gougxa said:How much should a white one, USA, in mint shape sell for these days?

I think the USA 08-09's are fetching at least what they went for new, if not more if mint. That one looks mint and the price is probably right. But I've seen custom shops go for 12-1300 as well....not mint but good condition..danyeo":37uc736f said:Yeah. The white one is local to me. Wasn't sure if that price was too high or not.

Yeah, you loved that thing right out of the box. They were really nice guitars for sure.

danyeo":2gsk8bv3 said:It plays as well as Suhr's and Anderson's that cost 3k, not shitting you on that!
Yeah there's something about them...just feels great in my hands. Plum USA is shipping to me now, and I found a Copperhead pointy reissue for 800 that I put money down on...that'll be my first 'graphic' flashy guitar, I've always had just basic finishes on mine. Played one Suhr, sounded and played great.....but these Charvels can hang with or surpass most superstrats I've played. Great guitars.danyeo":21w2bgj6 said:Racerxrated":21w2bgj6 said:Did you see that at GC.com?

So yes, I did buy the USA one for $1099. But I'm thinking of returning it and getting a MIJ one that's in one of the stores for $650. The MIJ has DImarzio while mine has Duncans. I'm still not a fan of the 59 in the neck, sounds pretty thin to me. But the JB in the bridge sounds really good and the thing plays great. It plays as well as Suhr's and Anderson's that cost 3k, not shitting you on that!

I was thinking you didn't like Charvel because of the wide fretboard....![]()
Anyways, I have a MIJ and I love it. It is a great feeling guitar. I do wish the fretboard was a little narrower, and I think I would prefer a recessed trem, but those are just preferences I have found after owning the So-Cal. They are great playing guitars. If I ever sell it, it will be to build a similar Warmoth with a few changed specs.
