Re: Magnum Bass
Posted by Ian Newton on Sat, 12/29/2001 - 22:16.
Its a good well made bass that sets up well, has excellent internation and warm tone. Difficult for pulling strings due to close proximity of the pick up by the neck. It has a graphite inlay through the neck and has excellent sustain. I paid £450 (UK POUNDS) for mine and I am really plesaed with it.

Unfortunately, one of my kids fell on my 1868 while it was laying in its case with the lid open. The kid is fine, but the guitar sustained major damage. It now has a crack on the top that runs from the bridge up towards the cutaway stopping about 5mm short of the epaulet. I guess it's about three inches long. Can something like this be successfully repaired? I live about three hours from the factory and am thinking about making a visit for an evaluation.

Anyone have a clue where I could pick-up the volume control and transducer for my 1982 Ovation Ultra series guitar. Pickup is in fine condition but the battery pack and volume/tone control is shot. The assembly includes volume control/tone, battery pack, and 1/4" phone plug for the guitar cord to amplifier.

can anyone tell me what these two guitars are worth i have had the gibson for a while but the gtx i just got and it is nice if so please tell me something about them
Posted by Cleve Johnson on Tue, 03/12/2002 - 08:16.
Do you still have the Sonex? I used to own a Silver one. I was young and poor and was forced to sell it to make a car payment .... way back in 1983.
I would love to own one again. Mostly for nostalgia's sake.
The Sonex was made of a composite body that Gibson was experimenting with. They were nice guitars for the money back in the day. I think I paid somewhere around $350 for mine brand new.
Anyway, Let me know if you still have and would like to sell yours.
i recently picked up a sonex 180 deluxe as well for $300. mine was made in 1982. they were only manufactured from 80-84, based on what ive been able to find, and ive seen prices anywhere from 250-400+ dollars. i really like mine, its got a nice tone and some character. you can tell the year of your guitar by looking at the first and fifth digits of the serial #.

A '80 refinished Sonex-180 Standard costs 350 bucks used in a local guitar store here in Helsinki, Finland. Used guitars usually cost almost twice as much in Finland as in USA.
GTXs are old Hamers made from 85 to 95. There usually equipped with less than decent hardware (the floyd copy is very weak and needs replacing within a few years). The Humbucking pickup is excellent for distortion. Singles do well for clean, but are absolutely horrid for gain, however, due to their ungodly microphonics.
They cost about 300-500 when they were new. The faulty hardware is made up for by the excellent neck and cool finish. Mines black with heavy white on it too :)Ive seen marble grey ones too. I use a gtx 33 as my main axe mostly cos people dont know what gtx is and they dig the finish. Im gonna swap out the singles for some decent pickups and i just had the floyd copy replaced with a real one.
I have an old Gtx 33 Les PAul Copy. Its very old and is still in almont mint condition. It has a cherry sunburst finish and i would like to know the value.
