  • I have a hook on a 1986 Rhoads USA, got a question.

    I didn't find any completed auctions online, but what would a 86 Rhoads, original in about a 8/10 condition wise go for? I don't want to low ball the guy, or give him too high of a price either. Any help would rule guys! thanks

    Student or Custom? Stringthru, Kahler or Floyd? What colour?
    Popular is not the same as good
    Rare is not the same as valuable
    Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

        If its unmodified I would offer 800 then work my way up to a grand. 86 was a transitional year when they went to Ontario so if it is a Ontario it is not worth as much as a San Dimas. Maybe about a 10% price difference between the factories is my best guestimate.

            If it was a student I would start at 500 and stop at 800.

              Weren't Students only offered/available up until 86? If so, that puts them in the more expensive "San Dimas" bracket.

                $800 for a SD Rhoads with sharkies? Dang that would be a good deal I reckon.

                  Its got a Kahler and it may be a Ontario. Last time I saw a SD RR custom with Kahler it went for around a 1000. I would start at 800 to see if he bites.

                      No pics, he has the guitars at his jam room. He told me he'd give me a call soon with the serial numbers, and too see if I still wanted the Charvel SD tele for $250 and the rhoads for $600!

                      He told me this long time friend who died gave him the tele and he bought the rhoads back in 86 for $700 bucks.
