KH 4 value?
KH 4 value?
Hello all,
I've not posted here In a long long while but thought this would be the best place to ask this question.
I am considering selling my KH4 which I have had for years. It sits in its case and never gets played as I really bought it as a collectors item. The guitar is in fully mint condition.
I know these are very rare but really have no idea what the market value on one of these would be.
Any thoughts on a ball park figure?
I paid US $2000 for mine delivered from the US 5 years ago. Mine is also mint condition.
I haven't seen one come up for sale lately, but I would thought they would be asking for more than $2000 now 5 years after I bought mine.
Certainly very interesting and I definitely wouldn't sell mine for $2000 these days, I would certainly ask for more money.
I clicked on the link icon, and cleaned up your link abit, and it takes you straight to the gallery?

Check this Custom Shop 'lefty' KH4 out.
I LOVE the 12th fret.
I wish mine was like that. Perhaps I should have a Luthier do it to my KH4.

Lol 5k... sorry man but you are dreaming. There's already one on ebay for 2200 not selling. You bought this for around 1800ish 8 years ago I see, it doesn't double (or more) in value in that time. It's not a rare or even limited sig, can still be ordered new today. Good luck with the sale but you'll never get that price out of it. Can only imagine what you think the relic is worth.
So what would it cost to order one of these from the custom shop today? I would bet it would be more than 3700 USD.
Guitar prices have increased steeply for ESP guitars. Look at the iron cross and revised ouija. All having RRP's well over 4000 USD. I know there are deals to be had out there but still.
its a rare custom shop ESP guitar, asking price reflects that.
I can't comment on the value of the KH4 in Australia Big Daddy as I have never seen one for sale here.
Until now.
As mentioned I paid US $2000 for mine back in 2011 out of the US.
Would I pay US $3700 for one now?? Probably not.
But I would still pay at least US $3000 for one in todays money. I thought I got a deal 5 years ago, so I would be happy to pay US $3000 for one now.
Especially as you don't see these guitars for sale in Australia and to order from the CS would cost me more than US $3000.
Thanks for the feedback. May hang onto it if I can get a bit more for it. The other option I have is to sell an original run KH relic. There are a few for sale for silly money but surely aren't worth that. Thoughts on one of those?
