Can someone get back to me on a value on this Roadstar II? Serial is C83... so it's a 1983. I have no idea about Roadstar values: -Chuck |

Chuckee: Personally, I would put this in the same range as the Blazer: $200-300. |

Thanks, everyone! Mr. R. I did find that auction right after I posted. The guy who has the one above wants $160 for it, and I really like the way it looks. Trouble is it's 60 miles away, so figure three hours of my time and $20 in gas. I'm thinking it over now. How do these play compared to strats? -Chuck |

He wants $160? Go into ANY music store and see what you can buy for that price. You might wanna jump in the car... The Bear |

Chuck if this is in decent shape go for it. I had one of these back in the mid 80's and they are very good guitars. |

After thinking about it, I've owned a couple '84 RS130's that were fine guitars. So was my '81 Blazer BL500. I have a personal dislike for most single coils and don't like the feel of Maple fretboards. So I tend to dismiss those guitars. The Guitar in question actually an '83 RS100. Very similar to the RS130 and BL500 mentioned above (hardtail, triple singles, maple fretboard). The Bear |

That one on eBay finished at $330. If I buy it, it will be just to flip it. I dunno. I don't think I have the energy. -Chuck |
