melj Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Greetings, I couldn't find any help from the Internet so I turn you people. Does anyone have a estimated price range for a Heritage Eagle model guitar from 1987?
houndhome Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Best that I can manage is August 1989 UK price which was £1295
fxdx99 Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I don't know myself, but here's a thread on similar topic... http://www.heritageownersclub.com/forums/topic/21316-golden-eagle-eagle/
bigsbytp Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 There is one on ebay right now for $1299 US Dollars...they seem to go up from there. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-USA-1987-HERITAGE-EAGLE-CARVED-TOP-GUITAR-Mahogany-Archtop-/191524897302?pt=Guitar&hash=item2c97c60216 I would expect that most Eagles run upward of this price - looks like it had some work done on it which might be why it is lower in cost - but that does not mean it is a bad guitar. Would have to play it to know. You can also advertise that you are looking for one on the FOR SALE forum - Noting "Wanted to Buy: 1987 Heritage Eagle" Good Luck.
TalismanRich Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 I just saw a D serialed Eagle for sale in South Carolina at the guitar expo on Saturday. The original price was $1900, but it actually sold for $1100 as part of a group of guitars that a dealer purchased. I was told the guy was planning to sell it in Finland or Sweden. The Eagle was in OK shape, but had severe fret wear on the first 3 or 4 frets, probably needed at least 3 replaced. First fret E was almost a groove, not just worn. I also saw a newer Golden Eagle with a pricetag of $3200 firm. It was a very nice instrument but above my "pay grade".
melj Posted March 4, 2015 Author Posted March 4, 2015 I'm from Finland actually and the guitar I saw at this store was also a D serialed Eagle. But this one had been there for half a year apparently. The guitar had a great sound, but the price was 900€ and being a student I can't afford that sort of a guitar. Maybe one day I'll get one of those. I usually prefer flat-top acoustic guitars, but the Eagle had a really great sound both acoustically and through an amp. As I said, I tried to find information about the model from Internet but there is only scarcely anything about the Eagle. Wonder why.. Thanks for all the replies!
