How to not regret this?

When all else fails:

 

Totally obvious and I'm sure not terribly helpful, but I've found it to be true pretty darn consistently: the best and probably only way to avoid seller's regret is to not sell the ones you think you might regret selling

 

Teles are to be collected, not sold

 

If you have to sell... one is inscribed. One isn't (at least not that I can see). I'd be keeping the one with the inscription if that person is still important to you.

 

Don't sell until you're absolutely sure. Too many guitars are better than regret of selling a guitar you liked. Selling a guitar you haven't played in a year is much easier than selling a guitar you're expecting to not play much the coming year.

I'd sell the black one if you really need to let one go now

 

Do you still have two kidneys?

 

Sell 'em both and buy/build another that's the best of both.

 

Go with your gut instinct, and choose to keep the one that inspires you to play more. You'll already know in your heart of hearts which you want to keep.

 

Send one of them to me. If at the end of 2 years you miss it, I'll give it back, minus shipping.

 

We’re here for y’all buddy. Keep em both! Sell the black if you must.

 

OMFG! I seriously thought it was a gift and it was signed "Luv Pamela".

 

Glad I could help.

 

Take one, set it up for long term storage, and put it away in a safe place out of sight for 6 months, and only play the other. One of them will call you and tell you what you need to know. (This method also sometimes works, with slight modification, in personal relationships, but not always.)

 

I concur with both Sid and Wozob.

I’ve came to the point that if it’s doesn’t have sentimental value and I haven’t played it in one to one and a half years... I tend to let them go and buy something I want to play that will inspire.
