  • Advice on trade

    Hey guys,

    got a dilemma. Don't have cash so I have to trade to get a certain guitar. What is your opinion on the next trade:

    My SL2 (candy apple red and the no-inlay 1996 model and as good as mint) for an as good as mint Black '85 Gibson Explorer (81135556) (no pickguard).
    You took too much, man. Too much. Too much.

    Heh, I just sold a Gibson Gothic Explorer to get a new SL2H......I'd say it depends on your sentimental attachment to the SL2

      Sounds like a fair trade to me with the higher potential future value going to the Gibson.85 is a good year, black is a good color and being mint is a real plus for a 20 year old. I am not a fan of Soloists without sharks.

        Aye!

        Needless to say a pickguardless Gibson '85 Explorer is a wet dream of mine! (Gigantic 80's Hetfield fan).

        Gonna wait for a couple more advices, but I'm leaning towards doing it!!

              If the Explorer is your thang, then go for it.

                is that the same SL2 that's on marktplaats and/or tweedehands.nl ? that thing is so sweet.. personally I'd hang on to it..

                black explorers are a little boring compared to the red sl2.. but that's just my opinion ofcourse

                but the no picguard thing is cool though..

                  That's the one, indeed. It's a very lovely guitar, the best I've had yet. But that gibby makes me pitch a tent... [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

                        That's definitely a fair trade if you ask me.

                              It´s a fair trade..the Jackson is IMO the better guitar, but the Explorer will almost certainly have a higher Resale Value [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
