20th Anniversary Silo TRADE equivalent ?

[dwells]

hey guys
im asking the question what would be the equivalent/fair trade for a basically new 20th Anniversary(hardly been played)
i am looking for another Luke and would love a BFR
your thoughts
p.s its an amazing guitar But my style suits the Luke too much!

I would think that you could get a Luke and some cash otherwise, a BFR Luke and some cash on your part. I could be wrong (and this is my own opinion of-course) but, the 20th. is a love it or hate type of guitar so, I would think that you would be better off selling it vs. finding someone that would want to trade his/her Luke and pay you additional cash or even trade you their BFR Luke and you pay them additional cash (trades can get complicated plus shipping etc.). There's a beautiful used 20th. at GC in TN USA going for $1,600 and it has been there for a while...

+1 on trying to sell it and buying what You want instead.

Sadly enough, I have a feeling the Silo 20th is not regarded by the "average guitar player" to be as cool or great a guitar as a "signature custom shop model", which a LUKE BFR is. As much as we no it's not trrue at all in case of the 20-th, I believe You'd have to pay a couple hundreds to swap the 20th for the BFR Luke.

BTW, is the difference in tone and feel between the standard and the BFR Luke a significant one? Remember someone in here saying it was rather subtle as compared to, say, standard pet vs. BFR pet.

I am about as 'average' a guitar player as one can get, and I love the 20th.

No no, please, there's my inability to express myself again.

What I meant by "average" was someone from the street, who is not that familiar with the EBMM stuff and not on this forum, but knows names like Petrucci, Lukather, Morse, etc....
