I've just bought an st 40 on ebay uk...
The thing is it was advertised as an ST50...it most definitely isn't a 50 though...it has the trapaziod tuners and flat pole pieces...
I paid ?405 and then shelled out ?35 in petrol to pick it up so in all it's set me back ?440...
The thing is that it is in museum condition...I mean absolutely mint...!!! It doesn't have a scratch or a mark on it...it looks brand new...for a 1984 guitar it's amazing...!!!
I'm wondering what what you guys think it's maximum value should really be...???
The thing is that the guy I bought it from imported it from Japan about 3 years ago and genuinely believed it was an ST50 but it looks like I've overpaid believing it was a different model...
I'm thinking of asking the Guy to give me ?40 back so I'm only out ?400...I saw an ST50 in worse condition go for ?510 last week and I would have gone up to ?500 for a mint ST 50...I think ?400 is probably ok for a guitar in the condition that mine is...and I do love it, sounds great and has fantastic sustain...not planning on selling it but looks like I did overpay through no fault of my own...
