I've had some people contact me about wanting to possibly purchase my guitar but ,as of right now, it doesn't appear that I'm gonna have to sell it. We've worked out a payment deal with the orthodontist. I'm still interested to know the value just for curiosity sake and possible future reference.

What were the LE's going for?

Glad you don't have to sell it. Assigning a value is the tricky part. Take into considration, BD was one of the more popular sparkle colors, plus BD is the Ltd. edition color of this year, which takes away from you a whole lotta buyers who missed out on the original finish. But, there are always nuts like me out there who would have to have an "original." I know, no help, right?

You never gave a good shot of the headstock. Is your Pet one of the 1st 100 signed by Mr. Petrucci?

It's a 6/18/2002 model

Glad you don't have to sell!

If you do change your mind, you know where to find me.


For what it's worth, I picked up my loaded JP6 in Blue Dawn for around $1550 back in 2005. Being that this one doesn't have a piezo, but it does have a minor ding, I can't see it being worth "what you paid for it new"

I don't think so but I'll look at it closer now and see.

I'm glad I don't have to sell it either!

From what you all are saying then it looks like it'd be worth around $1200-$1400 since it's got the ding and no piezo...

Thanks guys!

I agree.

Pete said your Pet was a 2002 model, so it would not one of the first 100.

The 1st production Pets started around 6/2001.

Sorry man. Just doesn't look right.
But I'll take your word for it.

I considered the flash thing before posting my original comment, but
I would have thought that unless you've actually deliberately forced the flash on (and then 'forgotten to turn it off'), no flash is going to go off (or reflect such big stars) in bright sunlight like that. :D

Geeze man..It a picture of a guitar ? It's not the photos of the alien autopsy from Roswell...Your sweating this guy over a starbrite on a photo like he was a Hermann Goering at the Nuremberg Trials in 46 . And you'll have to take his word...Oh thanks..Like he's a Jewish diamond merchant out to stiff you on a stone..Christ all Mighty..get on some meds...It's 4 in the morning..I've drank 2 pots of Days Inn bastard brew coffee..have guitars to re-string..because he's playing 3 chord punk progressions on 9's..when he needs 11's while praising the Lord...what's your excuse ???

What a pile of dribble

Listen here, D*ckhead !

I've already said I'll take his word for it, AND I apologised.

AND I gave reason for my questioning......

It's not like photo-enhancement doesn't happen.
If I thought there was any chance of someone here getting stiffed over a pic that doesn't represent reality, then I'll bring it up ! ... and that's all I did.

What's my excuse ? I don't need one.

Shut-up and get back in your hole.

Hey guys,
I didn't mean to cause an uproar or fight... It's really no big deal about the pic.

ADMINS feel free to delete this thread, I found out the information I wanted.

THANKS!

No worries BJ,

It wasn't you who caused it.
