but I need to find one for cheaper if possible! All the cheaper ones I’m finding (more like 400 instead of 3,000) are lighter in color, don’t look vintage, and just not the same. Can anyone help me out?

Sam B asked:


I have a Gibson Classical Acoustic guitar that my mom got in ‘74 I believe, & I was just wondering how much it’s worth. I don’t know the exact model, & all I can tell you is that it’s in bad condition; there’s a huge ***** in the front, scratches all over, but it still plays (& sounds like crap). I took it up to guitar center to see if they could fix it up at all, & they gave me an estimate for how much it’s worth (or at least how much they’d pay for it) & it shocked me, but I’m just looking for a 2nd opinion. Oh, & by the way, all you vintage guitar collectors shouldn’t get your hopes up–it’s not for sale. This is just pure curiosity. And after I get a few answers, I’ll tell you how much guitar center said it was worth.

I haven’t decided on what to get… a Les Paul or maybe a Gibson… I need some advice on Vintage Guitars as well as a good selection… and of course good prices.. Where should I look?

Im looking for a good vintage guitars forum. I have an old 1960s Gibson SG that I need to find out the exact year. I need a good knowledgable forum where people can help me out. Thanks
Oh, and in response to that first answer, the serial number is extremely faded. it was when they used to press the number into the actual wood.

Carla M asked:


a friend of mine gave me a Gibson melody maker and according to the serial number its from 1967, made in Nashville U.S.A. its in pretty good condition and im trying to figure out its price range.Its got sort of a wine red paint finish. It also has no pick guard.

Here is the serial number>>00303528

also this info may help.
it says “Made in The U.S.A” on the back of the headstock
both the serial number and the “made in the usa” are imprinted on the headstock(no decal or ink stamp)
AAAHHH!! CORRECTION!! ITS FROM 1976!! NOT 1967!!……….YES…TYPE-O…

d7freestyler asked:


Anybody have a ballpark estimate for the value of my old Gibson guitar with serial number 70078254?? I got it as a gift from a family friend with the original case. I’d say the guitar is in average shape, it’s playable and sounds fantastic. All original with minimal wear and tear. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I know what the serial numbers mean, just want to know the approximate value.
