Memphetic Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Anyone have any information on the Sobe promo guitar that was (supposedly) limited edition? Like.. how many were made? And if you had ever seen it before? I heard 50 somewhere, 100 another place, and some guy on MTV cribs had one or something and said there were like 3 made. I bought it off of eBay a couple years back and figured this would be a good place to ask such a question. Picture of it is here: http://www.epiphone.com/images/sobehero.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphetic Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Bump... I'm thinking about selling it in lieu of building my guitar and wish I knew how much to price it at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biliousfrog Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Limited edition doesn't mean much, I remember having Metallica's "live s#!t" boxset which was limited to hundreds of thousands. Limited just means that they're not going to make any more after the production run which could be 3, could be a million. There's a a couple of different versions on ebay at the moment for between $225 - $375 so I guess that's a starting point. Anything is only worth what someone will pay for it.

pmarlin Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 From what I have seen of those guitars, and they have made many different ones for Sobe, they were giving them away for radio promotions. So I wouldnt think they were golden, I see them on ebay occasionally. Look at how much you paid for it that should give you an idea of its worth.

Memphetic Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 However, they are *never* this particular edition, they're always either the white green and black one that looks like squares, or the one that looks like paint splatters. I've never seen this one anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwdotcomdotnet Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Limited edition or not, I don't know who would pay for a guitar with a Sobe logo on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
