Got a signed guitar, how much you think it'll fetch?
37 replies, posted
So, i got a hold of a guitar signed by Jarrett Riddick of Bowling For Soup and was thinking of selling it. wondering how much it will get on ebay, etc. Hoping $200-$300 but that may be a bit high considering their band isn't [I]that[/I] popular anyways, what do you guys think?

Any help is appreciated.
Dude, if he signed that for you keep it. It'd be kind of assholish to put it up on ebay like that.
Otherwise, maybe $500 depending on how popular the band is.
Your audience is limited to people called James.
yeah kinda got fucked over with the name on there
He signed it to you, kind of a dick move there. Looks a pretty sweet guitar though, I'd keep it.
Is that a gun in the first picture?

Keep it.
Keep it, if he signed it personally to you then it is sort of dumb to sell it. I know that if I was in a band and I signed an instrument for someone and they sold it I would be sort of sad.
Not really interested in keeping a guitar with no purpose, i mean i cant play it, or else it might break so it's just taking up space.

Rated wrench cause that was so totally useful
Actual value of guitar + 3x what his bare signature is on ebay.
If there aren't any autographs of his in ebay, subtract 20$ from the price.
Learn to play it then, can't tell for sure but it looks like a proper Gibson SG, could maybe sell it to a guitar shop.
Only an epiphone SG g-310 wich is worth 300 cad$ brand new so keep it
I'd keep it.

Beat me to it
Yeah it's an Epi G-310. I have one, I love it to death
Something's up with the treble pickup though, probably a bad pot or wiring.
But this is after two years of solid abuse, too.

I'm sure your problem can be fixed anyway. I almost bought one with the black and blue finish (black going to very dark blue) but I fell in love with the G-400 Cherry. tried it and ... love it more.

It looks badass to keep in your room, and how the hell would you break a guitar by playing it?
I hate people who have guitars as trophy case sort of thing, if you have a guitar use it for what it's for

Or else give it to people who want to learn but are too stingy to buy one.
:buddy:
Keep it, it's not even a signature but a signed guitar.
Um, is it a Gibson or Epiphone?
Don't forget, this is an electric guitar, not [I]just[/I] an autograph.
I doubt you will get much since it has your name on it, but if you do keep it, play it. If you're not going to play it, get rid of it.

Why? People collect swords, guns, action figures, and all sorts of shit and never actually use them.

Why would somebody sell a gibson for 300 - 400 bucks
it's obviously an epiphone
Oh forgive me your lord for not knowing how much a gibson SG will sell for, they're not my kind of guitar.

Hint: Gibson. The price range is generally quite high.
Epiphone is like the cheaper version.

There are exceptions. Although nowadays most of the low end Gibson models go to Epiphone, Gibson still makes a few low end guitars, and epiphone makes a few high end guitars.
EDIT:
Example:
Epiphone high end guitars(I just clicked $2000-3000 range, there are more in other ranges as well)
