Admitting defeat.

I will be selling the rig. Here are the placards I made for them.

I have no idea what to ask for them, since I am trying to put them in consignment. If I can't, then I have to let them go to the highest bidder. I don't have time to sit around for six months to see if I can get an amazing price for any or all of it. Plus, I cannot ship anything anyway. I don't think have the funds to even print these placards. I will have to go check, I guess.







(I love it when people talk smack about my Casio rig. I tell them that I have seen many impressive keyboard setups in my time, with most not having half of the mileage or the memories that mine has. Michael Almond played this rig one time. The piano player from the Squirrel Nut Zippers played this rig a few times. These two Casios have made Music for 15,000+ people on more than one occasion, with 'up and coming bands' like The Black Crows watching from the sidelines [because they were next]. One can roll their eyes if they want to. I wear the Casio logo proudly. Nuff said.)

I feel as if my soul is being ripped out. Goodbye dreams. (They were gone already, but this makes it permanent.)

You can list for free and include shipping in the price so the buyer pays. reverb.com.

$2500-4500 range is where their selling. If the black is nitrocellulose lacquer, that would be a plus over poly, especially if it is older. I'd estimate your guitar would go for $3000-3500 based on the refinish and described condition. The acoustic is almost as much a piece of folk art as it is a guitar. I would hesitate to place a value on it myself. The keyboard is out of my wheelhouse. Best of luck. BTW, I'm a long time player and I run a small independent repair shop.
