big bob Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 I'm talking with a fellow HOC'er about buying his 140, only thing is that I have not seen any sell recently. The guitar is a first gen H-140 I would like to make the owner a fair offer as he is a great guy. any help would be appreciated. Lance

FredZepp Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 A lot of the First Edition 140's sold on eBay go for bargain prices.. as they are relatively unknown. I'd expect to see them there for $700 - 1,000. I'd usually expect a nice 140 to go in the $800 range, but more for something that is extraordinary.
barrymclark Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Thanks eljay that looks to be a second gen. Definitely a 2nd gen.
smurph1 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 140's are great guitars..the thing I really liked about mine was the fact that it had the great H-150/Les Paul tone but was a lot easier on my back..Just a great Blues and Rock instrument..!!

DetroitBlues Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I just saw a H-140 goldtop with HRW's for $1,000 at Elderly in Lansing, MI... You'll need a member or someone you trust to buy it because they don't ship used gear anymore.

TalismanRich Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I bought my '86 140 for $850 or so last year. It had been up on Ebay for a couple of times and the guy dropped the price down. I put a bid on it, not thinking it would go through. It did, and I got it. Depending on condition, I think most will go in the $800 to $1100 range. I really like the 140.

Thanks guys Me and the seller have come to an agreement that we both like. Now the waiting is the hardest part.

blueox Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 "You'll need a member or someone you trust to buy it because they don't ship used gear anymore." As far as I know, Elderly will ship anything used/vintage except amplifiers.
DetroitBlues Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Thanks eljay that looks to be a second gen. What is the difference between the two (1st Gen vs. 2nd Gen)?
