Ermmm, you want to sell a £150 guitar for £300? Vintage guitars are budget guitars for beginners, the used market isn't very good, which is why you can't find it anywhere second hand. You MIGHT be able to get about £70-£80 for it if it's in good condition, but it will be hard to sell. That is REGARDLESS of what colour it is, it doesn't matter if it's a rare colour, that would only matter if it were a collector guitar like Gibson/Fender.

Sorry if it's isn't what you wanted to hear, but life is unfair sometimes! You would be better off keeping it if it plays nice
no thats why i started the thread asking how much the yellow one is. I paid £300 for it. I didnt pay £150 for it.
i remember the yellow one being on a website for £200 and something. I just cant find the websites anymore. like they've been deleted for some reason ^o)

ummmm..... you said that you paid L400 for everything which doesn't mean that the guitar is L300. bottom line is what Bullet told you L70-L80 for the guitar regardless of color. we're not trying to be mean or anything just honest. it's possible that your mom overpaid on the set up. it doesn't seem like a bad axe, why are you selling it?
and now for something completely different

what hes saying is you can't sell a cheap-o guitar for more, same guitar different paint job, your going to get around 150 maybe...

400 for everything. Around £50 for the amp, £25 for the bag (was £50 but we got it cheap due to its wierd shape), and 25 for the cord thing, picks stand etc. so alltogether, around £400.

im selling because, i dont really play much. to be honest, ive sort of given up on guitar. i play my acoustic now and again, but the axe sits in my closet. Also, i've been given everything in life before, sort of a spoilt child, so im saving up for my own laptop because im starting college soon and dont fancy sharing the family PC.
