Back in the early 90's, you could get these in the $500 ballpark.

Re: Joe's 65 melody maker for sale

I paid less than that for my '65 SG Jr (RIP).... don't think I could justify spending that much on a melody maker.

But it has Joe's MOJO all over it!  Are you sure?  It was his.

That guitar was purchased by me. Strung up once, played for two minutes and then cased up and given to my Dad who reimbursed me the 450 dollar purchase price.  I believe he sold it for 800. That's is far as it goes. I don't like the whole thing honestly. I hope someone didn't pay 2900 for it.
