Ovation CC-48, it was the beautiful Padouk model. Now I have 4 electrics, 1 classical and 1 bass, no acoustic guitar. I want it back!

Cort NZS-1 - A bit lame looking because of the inlay but actually a great versatile sounding guitar, played my first theater show with it serving as my workhorse and it did everything from The Police to Led Zeppelin brilliantly.

I used to work in an instrument retailer and as such there are a few guitars that I regret selling to people that were never mine but I wish I had bought them cause some of them were amazing and had crazy good prices owing to them not moving etc - For instance there was an RGA321FM that was going for R9995 ($1100) Which I could have gotten for R5995 ($695) brand new, it ended up selling about a month before I could get the cash for it

Bit of a success story though, we had a Royal Blue RG1527 come in which I adored priced at R7995 ($926), sold it to some guy who was a bit of a regular, he got a good deal on it and I always wanted to kick myself in the face for it going so cheap and me not jumping on it - Fast forward 4 years and I get an offer from a friend of his for an RG1527 for R4000 ($463) and now that exact guitar which I sold him and regretted not jumping on has been my main 7 string for the last 3 years I still have her, and I still love her like crazy \/

I've traded a ESP LTD FX-260 for a Jackson Rhoads V, I really do regret it because it was all mahogany with a spalted maple top, it had passive esp pickups but sounded GREAT when I had EMGs with it, I wish I could get her back...

Of the 80ish guitars that I have owned in my life, the only one I miss is my Charvel Model 5a. Neck thru, single humbucker, and pearl white. Can't get any more bad-ass than that. I sold it to fund my Ibanez RG2550 in 2005(which I still have).

Since I have sold it, I have only seen about 5 come up for sale, none of them in as good of condition that mine was in.

There was another thread about this a little while back.

I sold my Epiphone Sheraton II to fund my Raines 7-string hollow single-cut.

In hindsight, it ranks up there with the stupidest fucking things I've ever done in my lifetime. I loved the Epi, and the Raines proved to be nothing more than an expensive, dust-collecting paperweight.

Yeah that V-1 was an insanely great production model Schecter. I still can't get over how resonant it was and how low you could get it's action. But alas, the V shape and i weren't friends. And now that i put D-activator x's in that Classic, it sounds like satan.

I had a near mint 1990's Vinnie Moore Splatter for a while that someone talked me out of. It wasn't for sale but he offered me a bunch of cash for it and at the time I needed the cash for something else - don't remember what. Sold it and regretted it.

Fortunately I was able to find another recently to rectify my error in judgement.

At least I know you gave her a good home Matt! Sorry about some of the gigging scars on her though. I love my V-1 ATX I just get along withe V's and LP's so much. Love the balance and sound I get.

All my friends say "holy shit" when they first play the ATX. I was offered Gibsons for it but they didn't sound/ play as good My friends dad said he even wished his guitars played and sounded as nice as the ATX.

 

[AngstRiddenDreams]

Yeah the V-1 is definitely a jem. Wish i had the C shape version. And it's all good, there aren't too many nicks.

Biggest and only regret so far is my ESP eclipse, acsb, dual emg 81's, played like butter...I'll have another one someday

 

[atimoc]

ESP PH600, pretty cool guitar, has almost my exact perfect configuration.. I think this has been floating around the forums.. I had the HARDEST time trying to sell it for $425 or so... then I saw some asshole trying to sell one for $800, boy I had a great chuckle
