Guitars with HORRIBLE Resale Value

[GuitarStv]

The solution to the problem of low resale value of custom guitars is . . . . don't have a custom guitar made if you aren't 100% absolutely sure of what you want. If you're 100% absolutely sure of what you want, then you won't want to sell it. So problem solved.

i wouldnt sell the guitars i build for myself actually, they are great and they still do what they are supposed to. esquire with reverse headstock and bridge pup, hardtail strat, chambered tele with two buckers, another more heavily chambered tele with shs.

Can add any 'custom made' guitar for yourself from a boutique builder. I get them made for myself... but I always warn people that they are not ones to be moved on later lol. So better make sure you like it or know what you're getting into.

Thats why strats are so good. I can (and have) built the wildest stuff and then drop the original guard back in to sell if I ever do

These days resale on pretty much all of them suck.

Strats can also be parted out too to regain sone resale if they dont sell.....unless thet are pepto pink

Everything can be replaced on a Strat, even the ultra rare Fender Custom Shop "Centennial Pepto" finish that only was released on 100 guitars in 2019 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Pepto-Bismol

And way more prestigious than standard production Hello Kitty Pink.
