NGD pawn shop find!

[S7henry]

Well I got to pick up my new to me guitar today from the pawn shop! Just got done cleaning and changing the strings. I can't tell you how well this guitar feels and plays. The pawn shop sold it to me as a ce24. I guess they couldn't count the frets. This is a cu22 artist package and I'm glad I have the day off to play it!

Nice find man, and I would assume you got a nice deal on it as well if they thought it was a CE. All I ever find in the pawn shops around me are beat up Fenders and $100 Ibanez's.

Ditto this!

Ya I paid 1000 for it. It has a few dings but nothing bad.

DAMN I gotta start scouring the pawn shops...way to go!!!

Wow, great find and great price. Congrats!

Congratulations! I read about this when you first talked about it, so I pulled into a couple pawn shops to try my luck. All I can say is there isn't any NGD in my future...

This story gives me hope.....I had all but given up on pawn shops as every one of them seems to know to use the internet to check prices.....congrats on a great score!

 

[worthweaver]

A steal my friend. Enjoy that one........remember......dings are not necessarily a bad thing. The good ones get played

 

[veinbuster]

Great score.
Beautiful top.
Nice looking rosewood.
I might have to start checking pawn shops.

Score! Congrats!

Yeah pawn shops can be interesting to shop at, depends on where. Most pawn shops where I live have nothing but beat up Squiers that they sell for about the price of a new one.

But I have personally scored a few items from pawn shops during my business trips. Recent one last week I scored a 2004 MIM Fender Strat for $150 along with a MIA Fender Deluxe 112 solid state amp for $100. They were asking 400 for both but I haggled a down a bit and they're glad to get them off their floor.

I also once scored a low-wattage UK Laney tube amp for $30.

Nice! Another pawn shop piece of gold! I got my CU24 Brazilian Edition at a local pawn shop as well.

Finding a great guitar at a pawn shop is about like Sex Panther

 

[S7henry]

Ha yes this was a deal to good to pass up. And most pawn shops that I have been to also have squire epiphone and they are all cheap but the pawn shop is selling them for crazy money. But this place is a pawn shop for guitars. And almost everything they had was cheap. Except this guitar and a billy corgan fender start.
