We routinely have demos, closeouts, blemishes, and used instruments available for purchase. We encourage you to call us for the best price possible. And all instruments are sold with our 72 hour satisfaction guarantee. And as a guitarist myself I would never sell an instrument that didn’t live up to my own high standards and expectations.Īll of our instruments are thoroughly inspected, tested, professionally set up, and carefully packed for shipment. We strive to price our instruments as competitively as possible in order to give our customers the best possible value for their dollar. That is going to be a gamble for you potentially to the tune of loosing ~$300ish (maybe more) in value if the Peerless winds up not doing it for you.Our goal at Guitars ‘n Jazz is to find you the best possible instrument that not only matches your personal requirements and play-style, but is also a guitar that you enjoy playing and look forward to picking up. Edit: just saw your reply where test drive isn't feasible. The Peerless will likely never be similar in resale value to the Gibson, but that doesn't make it play or sound any worse in & of itself (or vice versa).

On the trade value, I'd let your fingers & ear be the guide more than current relative resale value. I've heard widespread speculation that they do the wood for Deusenberg as well but ? They seem to make some really legit jazzbox archtops too if the local jazz guys I talk to are anything to go by. Every other one that showed up locally for liquidation I wound up playing (which was most of them ) was a great guitar in my estimation, still kinda bummed I missed a really nice flamed trans cherry 330 type deal from them I had my eye on then. I love my Peerless Retromatic I got on blowout a year or so ago, I think they were around $800 new street price originally IIRC.
