How much is this guitar worth?

I have an almost 2 year old Jackson JS30RRFR I bought for $400 in February 2010. For that time it's been sitting in its case, I probably played it 20 times in the last 2 years of having it. I put a set of EMGs in it, and my uncle bought me the hard-shell case for my birthday. The guitar and case are both in almost perfect condition. The guitar has a chip in the paint on the headstock which I believe happened when the case was knocked over. I still have the original set of electronics that it came with. So how much money would be fair to list this for on craigslist to make someone want to buy it, also, would it be worth taking out the EMG 81/60 set and soldering in the original set to effect the value?

Also, try not to take this as an ad for selling my guitar, I'm only dealing locally.


Here are some pictures I took of it, try to excuse the quality of my phone :) The guitar isn't set up right now, I'm about to set it up

Personally, I'd put the original electronics back in, and I'd keep the EMGs and the case for a better Rhoads model.

+ a gazillion

Start high on the $,gives you more wiggle room.
I wouldn't take less than $250-ish,personally,but the chip may cost you...

I'd keep the EMG's and sell them separately, not because it helps the value of your guitar to be back to original, but because you'll get more money out of it that way.

The case is probably worth $150 by itself.. no?

The case was ~120.

As much as I want to get $450 for this guitar I really don't think that's happening. The guitar with the original pups probably $150, it's not exactly a quality guitar.
