While both the budget Epiphone and Schecter are gone at a profit collectively, another 2 budgets have arrived in the form of the Yamaha EG303 and Ibanez SA160 at 40 and 110 respectively.
The Yamaha was extremely filthy but thankfully the electronics were fine. I cleaned her up (though I could do nothing about the rust) and changed the loose tone knob (I’m getting better at soldering). She plays nice for a budget but undervalued strat guitar. Still a strat sounds too glassy for me.
The Ibanez is in a very good condition, except for one tiny ding. She sounds very good too. Yet, I already have a superior budget guitar in the Ibanez RT-150 (made-in-Japan).
Both will go for a profit.
