Gilbert's    

PGM10th - Near Dead Mint, only the slightest signs of play. There is some gold corrosion on the tuner heads probably from fingerprints, and the serial number is "fading", odd, but no funny business, just the way it is. Very nice figure in the top for a PG10 and nice dark rosewood on an excellent bow profile neck. In clean original case. Pics loaded here.** $2500** GONE** THANKS MATT** 8/30/05 

PGM10th - Brand New in shipping box [with heavy road wear]. This one has a nice subtle but tight figure that dances like crazy. Picky condition spec, there's dust? in the clear in a small area between the neck p/u and below the neck, 3 areas on the back with tiny surface bumps [clearcoat anomaly]. Untouched. In M100** $2500** The replacement neck I've been waiting for the last 15 months is FINALLY here!! I sold this guitar 5 times but couldn't because the original neck was not good. Now I can finally sell it!!! ;) ** GONE** THANKS MIKE** 12/30/04

PGM10th - Near Dead Mint, only the slightest signs it was ever played or out of the case. One of the most figured tops I've seen on a 10th which typically have very bland tops. In original M100 Signature case.** $2100** GONE** THANKS CHRIS** 2/25/05

PGM10th - Brand New in shipping box. Nice subtle and consistent top , a little tighter, but not quite as fancy as the one above.  Picky condition spec, very shallow fisheyes that were almost but not quite wetsanded out on the lower horn, .3-.4mm neck pocket gap treble side. In M100** $2200** GONE** THANKS MIKE** 2/26/03

PGM10th - BRAND NEW and untouched, yes I believe this is the first to migrate to our shores. Unless somebody here was fortunate enough to actually be a contest drawing winner for one of the 50 PG10's in Japan, I entered 3 times, no luck. If you had any idea what this cost me you'd think I was crazy, total worldwide production estimated between 100-150. This is a 25 fret hardtail model with string through bridge. Mahogany back with maple top, trapezoidal abalone and pearl inlays, reverse head, gold hardware, neck, head, and body bound in a cream/tan binding. Pickups are Dimarzio Tone Zone neck and bridge with a Jem single in between. Included is a PG10th leather strap with embossed Gilbert self portrait line drawing and "Rock Hard With PGM10th, Paul Gilbert". In it's original double box which houses the original guitar shipping box and M200 case.** $2400** More pics here **GONE** THANKS EDDIE** 6/26

PGM10th - Near Mint, the smallest 1mm dink and a few fingernail scratches under the pups from flawless. Missing the leather strap but in flawless case** $1850** GONE** THANKS BRAD** 5/28/02

PGM90th - Exc condition with just a 1cm finish crack on the top near the arm contour and a thin edge bruise on the back bottom edge. The entire body is covered in fine spider scratching from wiping down, and there's some finish wear on the low E saddle.  Hint of cert rash on the back and very mild fretwear. Before you ask truss cover is in case and only off to check neck. In original world 90 case with cert.** $2250** GONE** THANKS ANDRES** 11/27/06

PGM90th - Player grade, the front looks very good with only 3 small dings and some light scratches, large matte pickscratch patch, the finish wear on the bridge the most unsightly. The back edge has numerous chips, too numerous to try and count or describe as well as plenty of small dings and finish cracks. Pics will have to do the talking so most are high res. It's had a level and the fretwork reminds me of my 78' Les Paul, more fretless wonder than jumbo, but still plenty of fret. Very clean headstock as if it matters. In decent thickness gig bag. No cert.** $1375 AS IS, or $1550 cleaned and setup** GONE** THANKS DAVE** 9/30/06

PGM90th - Mint -, there are 2 very small dings on the face, about 1mm and 1.5mm, scattered wiping scratching, some light cert rash on the back, and cosmo wear off the very edges of the E and A saddles, otherwise pristine. Has it's cert of course and is in it's original M100 Signature case that has some corrosion on the latches.** $2400** GONE** THANKS DREW** 5/15/06

PGM90th - Exc+++, there's a small impression on the top where the upper horn begins that left a 2mm finish crack, otherwise the top is super clean except for scattered fine light wiping scratches and swirls under the pickups. The back has more of the same light wiping scratches but also a couple spots of what looks like cert rash but is more probable just normal fine scratches from a rub. The lower strap pin was hit at one time and the clear around the base of the pin has chipped away on one side. In clean HUSA J Custom 90th case that does have some spots of white latex house paint from an obviously sloppy painter. It does come off with a fingernail.** $2100** GONE** THANKS FABIO** 5/26/06

PGM90th - MINT minus with one small mark on the top** $1450** GONE** THANKS JUSTIN** 2/28

PGM100 - Player condition with more little finish cracks and dings to list. Rarely do I say refer to the pics but in this case I will. To note are the front edge top horn smack that has the finish on the top loosened and could use some super glue run under it. Also there is a large chip at the point of the belly contour that occurred during shipping [chips in the bag] and nasty wear and blistering to the trem baseplate. Otherwise it has a very good neck and very little fretwear so it'll continue to be a good player. In thin Ibanez gig bag.** AS IS $750** Cleaned and setup $950** GONE** THANKS LARRY** 4/28/06

PGM100 - 90' first year model in Exc+++. There's a 3mm shallow depression on the face up from the single coil and a couple other smaller depressions, pimpling on the bass side of the trem, corrosion on the neck plate, NJFC's as would be expected, wear to the signature on the control cover, minimal fretwear. Otherwise an extremely clean example. In M100 case.** $1175** GONE** THANKS NIKOLA** 11/2/04

PGM100 - 93' in Excellent played condition. The face is very clean with a few scratches over the pickups, clean sides, some scratches near then corroded neck plate and a 3mm finish crack an inch under the belly contour. One 3/4" NJFC inside the upper horn. Some minor shallow bruising on the back of the neck that can just barely be felt and some fretwear but definitely not bad. Plenty of pimpling on the bass side trem plate and cosmo wear to the tops of all saddles. In cruddy old Ibanez gig bag.** $1000** GONE** THANKS JAN** 12/15/04

PGM100 - 92', original, and super clean! Crisp body and neck, no fade on the pups, it's ONLY flaws are a 1/4" edge of corrosion on the neck plate and about 20 tiny pimples on the bass side of the original Edge with just a little finish wear on the saddles. Nice crisp PG sig on the control cover and a nice Billy Sheehan sig on the trem cover in matching gold. More pics here. In original Prestige Deluxe case** $1125** GONE** THANKS ROB** 6/4/03

PGM100 - Near Mint!! Very few blems, a tiny depression on the face and a couple scratches on the plastic bridge pickup bezel. a tiny flec beside the trem cover and 1 crack, 2 impressions, all on the back, CLEAN!!! It does have some strange wear on the tops of both strap pins and the tops of the saddles have finish wear, also the tuners are showing some fine pitting. Picky pics here. Nice large sig and self portrait on face. There must have been a second run of these for the home market as this is a 95'. In perfect M100** $1125** GONE** THANKS JEFF** 12/3/02

PGM100  - was a very clean example until an idiot shipped it to me uncased and wrapped in newspaper! Trem base plate broken so trem replaced with used Lo Pro. Plenty of pics** $625** GONE** THANKS CODY** 3/8

PGM200 - Excellent ++++, this is the cleanest 200 I've seen. Very early 1990 and is as green as every 200 I've seen [should be blue, clear yellows, blue + yellow makes green], the face is extremely clean, just normal fingernail/pick scratching you can see at the right angles, and 2 areas on the upper horn where either some chip out was sanded away or just overzealous sanding long before paint. There's a 4mm finish crack on the top side of the upper horn and a pair of tiny marks beside it, a tiny finish crack on the back top edge, and some small finish cracks on the back near the tail strap pin. The back and end of the tip of the headstock has some very small marks, the bridge definitely has some white corrosion considering it's spent 14 years on an island [Japan of course], no fretwear. In old probable original gig bag.** $1750** GONE** THANKS CHRIS** 3/20/05 

PGM200 - Excellent -  with various finish cracks on the body edges and back, but a very rare model that was only offered in Japan. In new very cool gig bag.** $1525** GONE** THANKS EDDIE** 5/29/04

PGM300 - Near Dead Mint, 03' model with the Edge Pro, only some cosmo wear to the edges of the E, A, and D saddles keep it from being dead mint. In astonishingly new M150 case circa 1992.** $1200** GONE** THANKS BRIAN** 10/19/04

PGM300 - Player condition which isn't bad but has a fairly badly touched up dent on the face about 7mm round, a small 3mm dink next to it, another 12x4mm dink on the arm contour. 15x3mm chip off the top edge next to the lower strap pin, a couple small chips and dings on the back bottom edge, a chip off the back edge of the lower horn, dink at the point where the belly contour meets the side. Clean maple board with some fingernail worming. This one actually has the dual PAF's that are supposed to be spec even though every 300 I've seen has had a TZ in the bridge. In clean Prestige Deluxe case.** $850** GONE** THANKS RICHET** 5/10/04

PGM300 - Very Good +++, very clean overall but with 2 small chips on the back edge, 1 bottom one top. Clean hardware, no clearcoat wear through to board. Awesome tone! In nice M100** $800** GONE** THANKS EDDIE** 12/5/02

PGM301 - Near Mint 2003 model has maybe 15 fingernail scratches on it in the pick scratch area, otherwise dead flawless except it was shipped on it's Prestige instruction manual so has some light cert rash on the back, probably from the dealer. In it's J Craft case, with pro setup.** $950** Or ** $1000 with the back buffed** GONE** THANKS DAVE** 4/9/06

PGM400 - I have no doubt this is one of the cleanest 400's in existence. There's a 2mm finish crack and a 1mm impression below the pickups, and impressions under the corners of the trem [probably because it's been sitting unstrung, truss loose, neck is perfect], a light 1/2" scratch on the side of the arm contour, and a small 2mm scuff on the tip of the head, otherwise the paint is absolutely pristine. There is allot of gold wear on the trem's baseplate from the previous owners overzealous cleaning, some fingernail worming on the fretboard from play that should blend out during prep, and just a hint of fretwear. All in all this is one cherry 400 since they are normally found in players grade. In best grade gig bag and with it's original red Gilbert strap, a rare enough find on it's own. Alder body, Humbucker From Hell neck, FS1 single, and Tone Zone bridge pickups.** $1650** GONE** THANKS KRIS** 10/19/06

PGM400 - I thought the one above was the cleanest 400 I'd ever see, till I saw this one. Just some light gold wear to the saddle tops, and light fretwear keep it from cherry. The paint is perfect, neck and body. and there isn't a single pick scratch on it. Some fog spots at some of the frets ends from shrinking frets but nothing cracked or burst. There is what appears to be a 3/8" crack in the fretboard that could only have been there when glued on if that's what it is. It has been smoothed a bit resulting in a micro scallop between those frets. Otherwise it's just super clean. In heaviest grade gig bag.** $1700** GONE** THANKS EDDIE** 10/18/06

PGM400 - VG condition 400 with a couple 3mm dings on the top, one right on the arm contour and one down near the knob, with a couple other very small bruises. The back side edge has a chunky 2cm x 5mm smack, and a couple small bruises on the back of the lower horn. There's also a chip at the top end of the headstock, and fog spots at all frets from neck shrinkage. Very little fretwear, gold wear on the trem saddles. In it's original cheap Ibanez gig with original Gilbert 400 strap. AS IS.** $1175** GONE** THANKS DAVE** 9/30/06

PGM500 - Near Dead Mint, 3 very short finish cracks near the back bottom edge and a few fingernail scratches in the pick scratch area are the only things to note. In original M100. $1150** GONE** THANKS MANFREDO** 5/9/04

PGM700 - The ultra rarest of all the PGM's and Holy Grail to most of the serious PGM collectors. This one is in Excellent condition, but there are allot of marks on the body front. Most notable are 2 depressions near the edge behind the bridge. 1 is 6mm x 3mm and cause a curved 6mm finish crack, the other is 8mm x 3mm that caused a shorter 3mm finish crack. There are a total of 6 more dings on the face that left circle cracks, ranging from a tiny .5mm to the largest at 2mm. There are also numerous depressions that caused no cracking at all, ranging from tiny to around 8mm x 2mm, I count a total of about 12 of these scattered around the top. The sides are very clean. The back has few dings, one near the strap pin edge that's about 3mm and left a 3mm finish crack, other smaller ones that left no cracks, but plenty of rivet worming scattered across the center raised section of the back. None of it deep but definitely visible in light angles. There's a chip about 3mm round at the tip of the headstock which is the only finish loss on the guitar. NO problems with the neck joint whatsoever, which is a problem area on 700's. Not even a hair of a crack visible [I have seen more than a few of these with finish cracks all around the set neck, and 1 where the neck was loose]. All hardware in superb condition. Serial # F960025 which I translate as 1996, 25th PG700 made. A definitive answer of total production is not available but the rumors and speculation floating around is that 50 were estimated to have been built. [although that number could just as easily be 100 and it wouldn't be any easier a guitar to buy]. In heavy duty probably original Japan issue Ibanez gig bag, non model specific. Pics loaded here.** $4000** GONE** THANKS MARKUS** 5/31/05

PGM800 - 800's always look pretty clean as any flaws are very tough to spot with a pure clear finish. Face is clean with 3 or 4 small indents under 2mm but there's an 8mmx1mm ding on the arm contour. The back is covered in light button scratching with 2 or 3 worm trails, but there are 3 chips on the back bottom edge below the control cover, all under 1cm. The headstock looks clean but there are 2 small edge dings. Unfortunately somebody has added p/u surrounds and there is a lot of gold wear on the treble side [I have removed these and included shots of the holes left, which would be best filled with a Minwax color match fill stick], very little wear on the bridge. Medium but even fretwear the deepest under the B string. In best quality Ibanez gig bag.** $1250** GONE** THANKS ANDRES** 11/27/06
