Heard of Profile guitars?
Posted by Eliot Wright on Sat, 12/04/04 - 11:10:22.
I have a Profile guitar that i refinished and it is a good rock guitar. When i got it second hand it had DiMarzio pickups and a nice neck. Apart from that there needed to be a lot of work done. I cant find any info anywhere, the only thing i found out was that the guitar was a middle "class" electric. My local guitar store said it was a good guitar with a nice sound.Know anything about the company?

I don't know if the webmaster will post my earlier reply. In simple words, Profile is a Kaman/Ovation product, but was at the lower end, often made with chipboard. I know the name of the real material, probably copyrighted and trademarked. Then the neckplate was heavily cast, and said professional, like many Washburns and Cort, which have similar features. The Profile guitars are excellent sounding - the combination of chipped wood & glue is like having quarrystone for a base.

I see a reply to this post which does not appear in the main column - we tried other replies but they were not printed at all.

I have a profile as well got it about 7 years ago. My dad got it used from a friend. Its been great I have an Ibanez rg270dx which is my baby but this guitar hangs in there almost as well. I did change the humbucker on it though as it was getting feedback like crazy I think just due to the age I had a humbucker from a shecter omen 6 kicking around so I put that in and it still has that great rock/heavy sound with no feedback. I never use the single coils it has. I have 11 gauge strings on it and have it tuned droped C and its great for playing stuff like POD or Linkin Park. I've never heard of profile b4 myself but I don't care if its a cheap/midrange or high end guitar, point is its tough and sounds great and stays in tune. But if I had to guess I would say it was a lower mid range guitar.

I also have a profile guitar. I got mine about 10 yrs ago and now I'm trying to find out if it has any real worth as I'm planning on selling it. I have looked all over the Internet for any information on the guitar and I can't find anything. Would any one know roughly what I could get for it?
You probably won't get much
You probably won't get much for it because not many people know about them, basically they are a very good Fender copy made in Japan and where not on the market for very long, the pick ups are not great but everything else on the Start copies especially is really good, so I suggest that you keep it replace the pick ups and anything that your not happy with and you`ll have a guitar the would be worth $1500 if it said Fender on it
