Location: SoCal | $400 with shipping is a pretty good price for these old guitars. New, they went for $325 w/ case, so you may still be a little high.
I'm constantly watching for my old Artist to show up. Same vintage as yours, purchased in the fall of '72. I'll know it because one of the ears on the headstock was replaced. I sold it 30 years ago to buy a Legend. It's probably in the scrape pile by now..... |

| kidney bean Grovers, that IS an early one..
looks nice.
is that just finish checking where hs joins neck or has that neck been repaired? looks like the back of my balladeer, and just finish cracks, but mine has the nylon(black)/chrome Schallers.
same cracks in the finish on mine(if no repairs) and they haven't moved in the 7 years I've had it.
bet this one sounds pretty good.

GH The cracks are just in the finish coat. There are also some where the neck joins the body. My guess is that someone put heavy's on it and left them. The guitar has been in my possession forr a few years now and they haven't gotten any worse, although I did put Elixer Lights on it. Ya, I really like the old school kidney bean tuners too! The sound of this guitar is amazing and I am sure it will only get better with time. The finish checking on the long grain on the top of the guitar has to be seen in person to appreciate. Thanks for the comments!!
