I wish I could save that Phase 3! Unfortunately all the parts are priced too high, it would come out to over $1200 to have all the parts and restore it to its former glory. I bought my current Phase 3 for $650, and my black Phase 1 for $350. Good deals are out there for Hi Fliers, I'm always on the look out for them.
1:30 Looks like the the lower horn of the body was shaved down, as they are usually longer. honestly I kind of dig the look of it! Anyway thats probably what the meant by the body being modded.
It looks like it's having an identity crisis. It has the Jag-Stang pickguard, the black JB from the Oranj-Stang, and the mini-JB from the Roseland Mustang (although it's black), all on a Skystang body.
Great set of videos, should definitely make this a series. Cobain tax is definitely a thing, just look at the prices on original Polychorus / Echoflanger pedals for example. People often part out guitars to get away with charging slightly more so I’d imagine that’s what’s happening there. I will admit I have definitely overpaid for a rare Phase 2 but I agree prices on Univox Hiflyer guitars are extortionate now
I bought a DOD grunge pedal on Reverb that was same models as Kurt's that only works with a power adapter for about $210, it was obviously overpriced with how badly people refer to the pedal, that Cobain tax is real but I was still happy with my purchase lol
So happy to see another episode! You should totally go for that Aria 1802T you found on marketplace 😮
You can’t replace that neck easily, being 25 inch scale

Also the Phase 2 shown with the modded body - Look at the horns. Someone cut the horns down
@@jq.guitars yeah I totally hear you. We work hard for the money, best to get the most we can for it!
I have been looking at the Aria DM-206 which is around $500 and is only different because it has mini humbuckers.

Yeah that's what JQ was saying. I can't believe I didn't notice that. 🤣
i have never felt so much confusion, concern, and fear until i saw the price on that “nirvana tribute” mustang.

the prices on the univoxs are crazy, i was able to score a 69 phase 2 for a little under $1,000 last year. great video man!
I want to hear that story! Lol!

I have an OG Grunge Pedal too! lol
$1,800 for a Hi-Flier is insane. For that price (if not significantly less) you could either build one yourself or get an Eastwood copy.
thats like 100 short of 3 eastwoods, wild prices
or get an actual high end guitar, these hi fliers look cool and all but they’re not the best guitars out there
Yep, at that point just get a used Gibson.
I got all of my Hi Flyers for for dirt cheap
There is white Phase 4 in NY right now for $900
On Market Place.
Sold my 2 phase II's for 900 bucks a piece.
That's definitely fair for both parties.
yo lounge act you need to grab that epiphone et guitar for $150 please dude
PHAHAHA YEAH I SAW THAT CHODE PHASE 2 ON MARKETPLACE TOO
looks like a lot of overpriced junk
