I need some opinions. I have an opportunity to purchase a 1988 1755 12 string in excellent + condition for $450 with OHSC. Is this a good price in terms of the current market?

Thanks in advance for all advice.

Steve.

eBay "Completed Listings"

In answer to the original question... If you have seen and played the guitar and agree that it is in excellent condition, you would be the best judge of value.
$450 is a good price for a USA-made guitar. You just have to decide if that is the guitar you want.

I'd think about selling mine for that, but I wouldn't follow through with it. It's too nice a guitar.
