Hopefully whoever bought it did some pre-purchase research.

The interesting story is GC has listed the X7 for $2,600.99. The exact guitar is $2,245 new on Emerald’s website. Amazing.

I saw it for sale on the GC site and wondered why the heck they were asking more than then new price for that.

To add to this thread, I'm the one who bought the X7 from GC. It was the only way to try one out to compare to my X20 so I paid the asking price. I might have kept it at a fairer price, but when I returned it yesterday and told them they'd priced it way above the cost of a new one they just shrugged. So I'm ordering a new X7 from Emerald.

BTW, for anyone within striking distance of Denver, the store there has an X7 and an X10.

I figured this was most likely the situation. I should have said something, I would have looked brilliant!

I was at that GC on Colorado this morning. I saw the X10 but it was locked up and I really didn’t care to trouble staff since I had played one before.

I did not however see the X7. When did you trade that in? I may make a second trip to try it out! I probably won’t buy it for the price they are asking though. They want $2400 for the x10 and $2600 for the X7. That’s ridiculous when I can get one new and even pick the color (plus the included lagniappe) [emoji846]
