In addition the Viper that I purchased yesterday, the gentleman had a few other guitars that he wanted to sell. Does anyone know anything about these guitars and their appx. value? More pics posted in my gallery (Other CL Guitars).

I'm not sure of the actual brand of this guitar - it says "Licensed by Ernie Ball" and I believe it says DP on the head.


This is an Ibanez EX Series - I think I have it narrowed down to 1992 - great shape, looks all original.



This is a Peavey T-15. Looks like it's in overall good shape, but hasn't been played in a long time - lots of dust on the strings.



I want to offer him fair value - he needs the money more than I do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mike

Update - the first guitar is a OLP Musicman - MM1 I believe.

The 1st pic looks to be an OLP MM1. An overseas copy of an Ernie Ball Axis. Probably $200-$250 brand new.

Nevermind... looks like you've already figured that one out!

I don't aggree with Al on the T15. For their cost they were a killer guitar. There were intended as an entry level instument, but could kick the ass of just about anything Fender were putting out at that time.

I think I narrowed down the Ibanez - I believe it's model number EX3700 with the Floyd Rose low profile bridge. The list price back then was $600 (+ $100 for the case).

I'd rather have a T-60 than a T-15. Especially if it came with the uber-cool (ou c'est plus-cool? Je ne sais pas, maintenant. Hrmm. Quand il est mort le poet; Quand il est mort le poet; Tous ses amis...)...uh, sorry, where was I? Oh, with the uber-cool amplified case (the one with the speaker in the lid). Heh.

Which makes me wonder if, when they designed the PF (the expansion of that acronym still makes me laugh), did O also design a PF-amplified case?

The case for this one originally came with the amp. Seems to have vanished somewhere...

I'll go along with the Japan == ++, Korea == +, China == - assessment of Ibanez, except that my archtop is a China made Ibanez and it's one of the sweetest guitars I've ever held. I think it's really a matter of looking at the individual guitar.

Absolutely, they're worth zip. Makes 'em great value for anyone with an open mind who needs a good cheap guitar and isn't led by brand snobbery
