Questions
How much is a used discontinued guitar?
Right now the middle asking price for a used discontinued guitar on eBay UK is £879, across 1,037 Buy It Now listings, from £254. The model, where it was made, its year, condition and whether it comes with a hard case all move the price, so check the typical price on each model's page.
Which models hold the most value?
By typical used asking price on eBay today: Fender American Original Telecaster (£2,062), Gibson Les Paul Traditional (£1,729), Fender American Vintage Telecaster (£1,665). The cheapest model to buy used right now is the Fender Player Jaguar at about £465.
Are discontinued guitars worth more?
Not automatically. Popular or limited models often hold their value once they're no longer made, while a model replaced by an improved version (an American Standard by the American Professional, for example) usually sells for less than its successor. Compare each model's typical used price on its page, and watch its price history.
Is it safe to buy a used guitar on eBay?
It can be. Pay through eBay so the Money Back Guarantee covers you, buy from sellers with a long, positive feedback history, ask for photos of the serial number, frets and headstock, and be wary of anything far below the typical price. We flag new and low-feedback sellers and warn about prices 35%+ under typical.
Are these sold prices?
No, they're asking prices from live listings, refreshed daily. Guitars often sell a little below the asking price, especially with Best Offer. Our price history records the daily median, so you can see the trend.
