Who out there has a 1717 from the mid "80's" and what can you you tell me about them? What would you pay for 1 in very good shape?

Yea, I have a 1717, but it's an '07.

Deep bowl, non cutaway Legend. Either gloss or semi gloss neck. Either stacked tone/volume on shoulder or OP 24. K-bar reinforced neck. A braced. A really good guitar. Value? $350-$650 depending upon condition. Would I own one? Hell yes......

I tried to buy one 3 weeks ago. The guy had it listed for $325 in very good condition. He got a bunch of replies and decide he could get more so "uped" the cost to $625.00 He couldn't sell it
so offered it back to me for $500.00. As I just got the 1719 30th, cash is to tight and I had to pass. It will be on Ebay tommorrow out of R.I.
He's going to have the reserve at $500.00. I wish I could!!!! Check out Craigslist in R.I.
for pictures if anyone is interested

$500 for one in excellent condition and OHSC is a good price. However, it won't sound as good as your 1719.
