I got this nice item at work, an '02 Fujigen japanese build Epiphone Elite Les Paul EB. (Yes, no need for glass, 2002 not 2012!)
This guitar's never had an owner before... it's NOS...

A colleague offered a swap for a 2002 Epi Elite Dot NA... already got a CH though... the LP is heavy (non-weight relief), not sure what to do though.

Guys, does anyone know what would be a good price to ask for such an item as this?

Hi Werner - if you mean for the MIJ Epi LP - a nice second-hand one from a Japanese dealer will set you back around JPY 75,000 (excluding Japanese sales tax) + shipping of around JPY 16,000, which translates to around EUR 740. Not sure how much tax and duty you would need to add on top to get a comparison, but if we work with 21% VAT (and no additional duty/customs clearing fees) we get close to EUR 900 all-in. That should give you a benchmark.

Wow, thanks, Evan! I do mean the MIJ Epi LP.
My first nephew was born on 17 JAN... his name's Evan
Well it is like a more-than-nice 2nd as it was NOS when I got it about a month ago, and still as good as new as I barely played it.

Sorry, Wim, the colleague got rather fond of it and he doesn't want to sell it anymore.
