Author Topic:  Ballpark value of my sho bud.

Number stamped under guitar is 4329.

It is suppose to be a Pro I but does not say "pro I" on the front. Was this an older or later model than the traditionally labled pro I's?

It has a bit of the typical surface cracking but sounds like a good ol sho bud.

3 pedal, 4 knee.

I am thinking about investing in a new instrument and would love to know a reasonable price to ask for this one.

Thanks for any help.

The Pro I's were in production at that time and I understand that the early ones did not bear a decal.

Would like to see underside pictures.

You'll have to research the sale section for a going price.

Looks like the pedals were cut down. Nice steel. Smile

I would keep it--those singleneck Shobuds were incredible tone monsters of that era. You will probably wish you never sold it. Typicaly, they bring $1400-$1700-ish.

I agree with James. I sold mine two years ago and am still kicking myself.

I've a similar 3+2 model and all I can say is if I could get those sounds out of my PP I'd only own one guitar....

Barrels behind 2-hole pullers? Very nice guitar. I'd rather have it, than a new instrument! Course I'd need to add some more levers,,,,,,,,,,,,
