    Nice ST-80 with removed logo

    http://page19.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/x423524562 But the thing I'm curious about: in your mind, by how much should such a guitar be discounted for the missing logo? Or put another way, if you owned one without logo, how much would it be worth to you to have the original logo? With...

    Fender factory in 1959 (or earlier)

    Cool youtube video in case you haven't seen it yet. Gives you a new perspective on the reverence with which these instruments are now treated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nswcAPvH0P8

    Crews Maniac Sound Les Pauls

    Anyone who spends any time on Digimart will have seen these. Seem Musicland Key Music is really pushing these. Has anyone here taken these for a spin? They sure look good to me. They have exactly the look I like, plaintops with a lemondrop or subtle honeyburst finish, and for some reason...

    MIJ guitar price increases vs general inflation in Japan

    My interest in MIJ guitars has led to a wider interest Japan-related things. Recently I came across a newspaper article that said that the average Japanese salary had been dropping in the past 10 years, which is of course in contrast to the prices of MIJ guitars. Anyway, I got curious and...

    Very early Navigators (late 70s): just midrange?

    I've noticed that the very early strats (Esparto series) and les pauls from Navigator don't seem to sell for that much, usually for well below 1000 USD. Like earlier this week I was watching this Navigator les paul being offered on Yahoo auctions for 50,000 yen. No one bought it so the auction...

    Les Paul Neo Select at 78,000 Yen. Good deal or not?

    Been looking at this baby: http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d111594591#enlargeimg In case the auction has expired, it's an ebony Neo Select Les Paul with P90s. Chances are that it will be relisted since it's a "buy-it-now" auction. From what I've read on this forum, "Neo Select"...
