Hi all,
Hoping to get a little advice. Thinking of picking up an SX tele thinline - the seller wants around R3k for it. Is this a reasonable price? I saw that in the US (converted dollar price) it's slightly cheaper but not much, and probably won't be able to ship it here easily anyway. I've only found one other place doing it for this price, the other I found was quite a lot more expensive.
Am I out of my mind?
Last one I had was good, although pots & switches were upgraded to cts/switchcraft - paid R1900 for it about two years ago. I'd say around R2500 would be about the max I'd be prepared to pay for a clean one now. I see them popping up on the facebook groups now and again somewhere between R2200 and R3000
Music Experience were doing brand new ones for R2995, not sure if they are still doing them at that price. Not sure who is the importer of SX at the moment, but I'm fairly sure there is still a local importer.
