Location: Florida		I'm getting ready to trade in my 84 Ovation Balladeer 1861, ser # 348495. It's in very good condition.

I was wondering if anyone might have a guess as to what the value would be for this guitar.
I don't want to get taken to the cleaners on it..LOL.

I know its hard to say without looking at the guitar, but I was just looking for a ball park idea.

Thanks for any help

Location: Boise, Idaho		Big ball park. $150 to $500. Doubt you will get anywhere near the high end on a trade, though.
