Dr. Jabsco Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 I would say thats worth well over 500 dollars, if all the stuff is in good condition. If you do buy it, I will buy all the bass pickups off of you for 100 dollars, or maybe more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob7 Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Its a HORRIBLE DEAL man!!!! By the way, could i maybe get this guys number......Lotsa good parts in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Doyle Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Actually, it might be a good deal, or it might suck. There are alot of variables, such as the neck. body, pickups and tuners. If its all entry level garbage, it might have a face value of over $350, but there is no way you are selling that stuff in the next year seperately. And in addition, if its all garbage, you don't want to put it on your guitar right? If they are just crappy in line tuners, they aren't going to adorn a guitar I worked a month on! The point is, this guy obviously worked on tons of guitars in his time, and has collected a load of useless junk. If he sold it all seperately, he could probably make $500-600, but it would take a year or more. If you buy it and find you don't really use anything more than 5-6 things...then you have that burden of either selling it seperately or the whole mess for $350 It all boils down to what kind of guitar builder you are. Some people will call this a golden oppurtunity, others (like myself) will call it a waste. And I am the kind of guy that jumps on deals like this...but there isn't enough goodies for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloyguitar Posted July 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 ok...so i ended up buying it, of course i don't really need any of it, but it sounded like a good deal, so whatever. I'll probably end up throwing it on ebay, with the exception of the bass pickups, if any of you guys want it. Thanks, Devon p.s., if any of you guys want any of this stuff, just pm me with what you want and an offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Doyle Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I don't get why you bought it for $350, and are selling it for $200. Like what the ****? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alloyguitar Posted July 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 i don't really have the time to sell it individually, and besides, i got what i needed out of it, and if it doesn't sell, then make me an offer on anything... thanks, devon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
american_jesus Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 why dont you assemble the BC Rich, sell it for $200, then sell the rest of the stuff for a good $200? That's a $50+profit on your part, plus you make some kid happy with a "custom" BC Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
