If I had a spare $1500 and found one for that price--I'd grab it.

I wonder what that $1500 would be worth in 2010 odllars?

I know there's a couple of websites that convert that for you--I wonder how accurate they are.


Dunno...but it's not just strictly a matter of inflation. Part of the reason they have gone up is some higher profile players are starting to be seen with them. Kinda funny...it's taken 34 years for people to start realizing just how good these guitars were!

I am positive. A huge Foo/Grohl fan here. The headstock on the Trini IS elongated and appears similar the the Starcaster's. I believe Gibson still makes them, and consulted Grohl on the specs he wanted. They are metallic baby blue with diamond f-holes. The only Gibsons I have ever been interested in are the CS-336, CS-356 and the KS-336 (gold top). Opted to find a Starcaster instead; at a similar cost I got better pick ups, and a guitar that was also an investment, plus have always been a Fender guy. Though, I wouldn't rule out the little CS, but would like P-90s instead.
