Guitar Discussion Forum - The Fret

Help Support TheFret.net:

The only items possibly sought after down the road will be limited run Customs and, maybe, signatures from Fender or Gibson. If you think you're gonna retire on what you have now don't hold your breath.

Mint condition "Slash" Signature Guitar Hero controller (not re-issue!!)

This controller is the real deal. Made in China in 2007, this "pre meltdown" GH Signature Controller was one of the last ones made before the factory relocated to Kazekstan after the global economic collapse of 2008. If you're reading this ad then you know that Chinese made quality is what it's all about. I'm sorry I can't post serial numbers online. Too many fakes around!

This controller has only been used a couple of times at home and never gigged online. Hefty ABS "Tone" Plastics used throughout and high gloss dyes used on the controller buttons means sustain for days.

This is your chance to own a vintage classic. The price for these just keeps going up so get in now!!

What becomes "hot" will depend a lot on whether today's or tomorrow's guitar heroes play a particular model. Late '50s Pauls were just "old guitars" (and Gibson had discontinued them because of poor sales) until Clapton, Page, Beck and Allman started using them.

Of course, rarity figures in, too, but a lot of truly rare guitars aren't worth much because they don't have any star power attached to them. And today's guitars are cranked out by the gozillions, so even the "collector" series and reissue models won't be as rare as the '50s/'60s originals.

That said, I think the high-end guitars being made today will be seen as the very best EVER made. Today's makers know more about what makes a great guitar great than the "greats" ever did. While we still have the wood and the resources, we'll be in the golden age. These are the good old days, so get the guitar of your dreams and hang on to it. As the poet said, "Tomorrow never knows."

Personally, I have high hopes for my Grosh Electra Jet, but only time will tell...
