Location: Utah | I'd say it is worth around the $600 the seller is asking as an opening bid, assuming it is in excellent like-new condition. Probably it is a very nice looking instrument with the nutmeg finish, and it should have that typical LX sound and playability.
I don't think it's a bargain, but a nice guitar at a fair price that should make someone quite happy.
my 2 cents. |

Location: Utah | Flag, it probably sounds very similar to your 1778LX. The difference is the round hole and that is about it. |
