Are these all ones you have sold or just prices of ones you've seen on ebay? That last one is a great deal too I'd love to pick one up if I wasn't broke maybe one day.

G'day mate
If you have looked at my website, you will see that I record every Verithin that pops up, e bay, craigs list etc etc. These are the guitars that have sold in the period since October last year. The last one was, as I said, a real find. Wrongly described on e bay, and the owner took no notice when I gave her the correct information. Someone commented to her that the guitar was worth 4 times what the current bid was, so I had no conscience when I bought it for £640. It's the second earliest Verithin that I have on record, in fantastic condition for it's 50 yerars. I reckon you would enjoy a Verithin, similar sounds to a 335, but a whole lot lighter weight. Nice guitars to play---

Anoraks on please
There have been approx 100 Verithins and variations posted on ebay and privately, of these 62 sold. There may be a few more as in the early days I didn't track selling price, I just listed the guitars as a service, then later realised the value of the exercise.
This breaks down thus:
Verithins 28 sold, high £900, low £340
Florentine 2 sold £572 low £376
VT Bass 3 sold High £595 Low £325
4574 11 sold High £752 low £137
4600 2 sold high £365 low £ 153
4575 sold 9 high £1317..............someone paid way too much for that one!!! low £343
500/6 1 sold high £354
500/7 3 sold High £555 low £354
43572 (i) 3 sold high £404 low £288

If anyone is anorak enough to want to see the spreadsheet, I'll post a link

I think that this information is the best.
