One in Palm Bay Florida on C.L. (Black - listed for $325) I had a chance to pick up a black one on ebay a few weeks ago and have been kicking myself since for not going after it harder. It was in semi-rough shape but I think it went for $240. An SGV 800 in pretty good shape in blue sold around here for $300 or so and again I was kicking myself for holding off (I had just started looking at them), so I recently picked up a blue EGV for $200 to hold over my GAS. It's in decent shape but has some cracking in the finish and a little belt rash. I'd really like to find a yellow 300. One sold on Reverb recently but it looked like ... At this point in the post I decided to try to search reverb to see what it sold for, came across a new one recently listed, and bought it , for $509, shipped with hard case. Probably paid too much, but it looks like it's in great shape. I don't need it, just love the way these look and sound. I'll try to post pics when I get it. So now I have a blue EGV that I need to sell, along with a few other items, . Good luck. That black one in Florida looks like a great deal if you can work out shipping or whatever with the seller, it's been on there for a couple weeks, so he might be willing to deal. Top

I would totally buy that black one in Florida but dealing over Craigslist with shipping is a little shady to me, plus I'd like a stock trem arm if possible. If anyone else has one to spare get at me! — The Del-Vipers Top
josheboy Joined: Mar 13, 2009 Posts: 2351 Twin Cities, MN	Posted on Mar 06 2015 09:48 AM Offsetguitars.com has a yellow one on the for sale page for $380 + shipping. You have to have 50 posts before you can view the for sale threads. I can act as mediator if needed. I'm tempted to get this for myself and have it repainted, to be honest. But I'll be happy to set this deal up if you need. Just PM me. Slideshow on photobucket Last edited: Mar 06, 2015 10:03:50 Top

Here are a couple shots from the ad for the one I bought. Hopefully comes as advertised. I didn't ask about the whammy bar, but hopefully it's there. If not I'll track one down eventually. Top

surfbeatslbc Joined: Aug 12, 2014 Posts: 189	Posted on Mar 18 2015 05:11 PM My SGV came in! Overall I'm pretty happy with the condition. Small dent in the finish in one spot, the input jack was completely loose, but tightened up easy enough. The pickup selector switch is loose and appears on the verge of failing, so if anybody can point me to the right replacement switch (seems like I read somewhere that they are smaller than normal and the routing won't allow normal sized switches?) that would be much appreciated. I'd post photos, but why bother, I think the sellers pics posted above would be as good or better. He's sending the trem arm separately now. All in all I'm very happy. I love the color in person, not sure what they called it, looks like it should be called "lemon-butter" to me. Now I just need to find time to play. Top

HallmarkSweptWinger Joined: Jul 27, 2006 Posts: 1284 Berlinesia, Germanifornia	Posted on Apr 08 2015 11:09 AM 300-400 $ for a SGV 300 seems not overpriced for me. I know in the USA the prices are lower. Here in Europe a SGV 300 is about 400 up to 650 Euros. At ebay. 600 Euros is about 650 US dollars these days... If you find on at ebay and think the price is too high, write to the seller and ask for a lower price. I did this a few times with positive results. have fun! — Twang cheers!

Rossmosis Joined: Jul 13, 2010 Posts: 179 Austin	Posted on Apr 08 2015 05:55 PM What Squid said was the ones currently on eBay are $300-$400 MORE than the SGV800, meaning they're asking $700-$800 which is too much. Be happy to buy one in a color I liked for $400... — The Del-Vipers Last edited: Apr 08, 2015 18:05:23 Top
Squid Joined: Aug 22, 2010 Posts: 1013 Portland, Oregon with Insanitizers	Posted on Jun 26 2019 01:59 PM GuitarCenter.com shows an SGV300 for $370 today. Wow on this price. I expect you can order it in for pickup at your local Guitar Center store. More costly choices: Reverb.com shows 3 different SGV300 guitars under $600 today, and one is $525 + shipping. On Ebay SGV300 are at least $200 more than this and they're all in Japan. — Insanitizers! http://www.insanitizers.com Last edited: Jun 26, 2019 14:02:06 Top
Redfeather Joined: Jul 30, 2016 Posts: 854	Posted on Jun 26 2019 04:28 PM That one on Guitar Center isn't the same thing. It's an EGV: just a Strat (or Pacifica) with an SGV shaped body. And it's overpriced. Last edited: Jun 26, 2019 19:54:35 Top
edwardsand Joined: Jun 29, 2018 Posts: 661	Posted on Jun 26 2019 06:53 PM You are right - it's a red EGV but it's listed as an SGV300. And way overpriced for an EGV. If someone buys it at that price and finds out what it really is, they're going to be pissed. Top
