My most expensive to date was under a grand. Lp Jr Special. Two P90's. It plays like a dream, sounds like rock and roll. Simple. Basic. Ain't much to look at but i love it's little bite.

If we were talking value i would hazard to guess my Sparrow Rat Rod would be the most expensive in around the 1000-1200 range. That guitar is a beast. It weighs a ton, SOOO easy to fret and bend the strings on. Also very much a rock and roll guitar. It has some lame graphics on it in a dual tone so you only kind of see it in certain lights but, i really don't care what it looks like. I got it for a steal off local classifieds. It's just a great guitar.

now that i think of it my Ibanez PF350 might actually be worth more. But i have never really looked to far into that one.

& let's see some more pics...

Here are a couple more pics. It is brighter than my Custom. Custom I bought about 4 months ago. I have a black std., but always wanted a black custom since playing a 76 custom in the 90s that the owner let me borrow for a few months and then refused to sell. He didn't play and it was passed down to him. The LPC was less than the reissue at $2,650. Not cheap, but I was set on exactly what I wanted.
 
JDOD: Thanks man, I really like it. I also like that tele you posted, that's a unique looking guitar....And, if I had the $$$ I'd buy the tele you have/had in the classifieds (if it's still there, & the shipping wouldn't be a fortune, which I'm sure it would be)....Just don't have the funds right now...


Dig your studio, miner. Of course, I pretty much dig any gibson les paul. :)
Thanks man, I couldn't decide between the desert burst & midnight blue, but ended up with the burst...I know it's no custom, but it's a great playing & sounding guitar. I'm actually gonna change out the butterscotch p'up rings, poker chip, switch cap & pickguard before long. I was gonna go white, but I think I'll go with black. Should make it look better IMO, I honestly don't like the butterscotch colored plastic on it, but I can live with it until I get around to putting the black on it.....
