That is a simple keyword search in ebay. Right now it appears to be 3K at the high end, and on the low end is one opening bid at 850.00 (will move higher I am sure, maybe by you?)

Good luck.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Palehorse https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69084 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69073 Sun, 12 Sep 2004 07:14:22 +0000
It all depends on what condition it's in. If you think it's in "great" condition tell them you will pay 2 grand for it. BUT!!!, make sure you check EVERY curve of it, headstock, neck, body, and all the mechanics involved.

Make sure there aren't any dents or dings in it, you'll be surprised how much a dent in an obvious spot will bring the overall value down (which doesn't mean the guitar sounds worse, it just means you can bargain with them more).

I hope everything works out in your favor.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Mike https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69073 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69061 Sun, 12 Sep 2004 04:50:36 +0000
Gibson ES-225

I typed es 225t in Google and came up with many articles on this guitar.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Wes Inman https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69061 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69057 Sun, 12 Sep 2004 04:34:54 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Moonrider https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-69057 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/please-help-with-purchase-decision/#post-3699 Sat, 11 Sep 2004 17:25:08 +0000 ES-340, ES-175 and others, but yesterday...

I played a '56 Gibson ES-225T with two P90s at a local guitar store and
Woooow!!! I really liked the way it played and the tone is great!! Even
better than the ES-350 I played recently. I think this particular guitar
is special, but they're asking $2,500!!!! Seems like a lot, but I really like
the guitar - I think ideal for blues and rock! I don't want to buy it if it's
overpriced but I can't find much information on the model anywhere on
the web.

Does anyone out there have an idea what this guitar is worth or how
I can find out? Is there a free online guitar blue book site? And, should
I get the guitar for that price????!!!!
