I traded in a PRS SE Custom 24 for a Musicman Ray4 bass.
I was never going to play the PRS again because I disliked the 24 fret neck pickup thing and I really wanted an MM bass so instead of having to go through the hassle of trying to sell the guitar privately, I asked GuitarGuitar and got a surprisingly good offer so traded the guitar (which I got new for £570) for the bass which, despite being MM's budget option, definitely gives me the Stingray sound I wanted and there's nothing lacking in the quality that I can tell.
After about a year of happy bedroom strumming I fell out of love with it and in a fit of madness traded it plus £50 at the same store for a 1970s Saxon SG copy which was for sale at the same price I paid for the Senator.
When I recently decided I fancied another Hofner I was dismayed to discover I couldn’t find one in as good condition as my old one for under a grand. At least the SG is still worth what I paid for it.
I swapped a CS Telecaster for an Ulbrick Arena amp and cab. Financially it's the most stupid thing I've ever done. I did say yes after about four strums into the amp though as it sounded amazing and I still think it holds its own with any of the other boutique stuff I have. On the positive side I'll always keep it because I'd take a bath if I sold it so at least that temptation is avoided
I hated the Tele anyway....We live and learn
Si
During the late 90's Nu Metal boom i also traded some pointy guitar (i want to say it was a charvel, but it cost me £200 a few years prior) for a Fender Sambora Strat.
