Location: Minden, Nebraska | Al Dimeola's signature might add some value for a fan, but signatures usually don't add value.
The value of a Pinnacle depends somewhat on whether it is an early 90's Japanese made guitar or a recent Korean model. The latter are generally pretty cheap. The MIJ guitars up until a couple of years ago sold for similar prices to USA Balladeers. Of late they have gone quite cheaply, making them -- in my opinion -- a comparative bargain. They are well made guitars and the torch-top models are attractive. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Yes that is true, I've heard that my signature can reduce the value by up to 50%, sometimes even more! |
