Hi All
I am a player and collector of guitars. I have come into a beautiful 1755 custom ballader 12 string. It is near mint. I would like some help to determine what I should ask for it. I know my Electric values but not my acoustics.
Thanks in advance
Ray S

Welcome, Ray. Nice to see another Upstater aboard - hope you're enjoying your winter as much as I am! From time to time the 1755's come up for discussion but in a search of the site/archives, there have been only one or two for sale and they ranged from $800 - $1,200 and that was a few years ago. You can verify that with your own search. You might get some interest out of some of the members here if you have pics to post. If not, maybe someone might have some help for you anwyway.

I bought mine off of eBay about 3 years ago for $425+$35 for shipping. I got it from the original owner who bought it at the west coast NAMM show when the model was first introduced in 1985. It's not mint but is in excellent condition. I don't think the price has changed much over the years.

Here are some shots of Ray's 1755 for those interested...











(And, for some reason, I had a hell of a time posting these. Don't know why exactly but, hopefully, I did the guitar justice. If you're interested and want other shots - pm Ray.)

Nope - will tell you all right now I didn't do it justice. Sorry, Ray. Again, if anyone is interested, see Ray directly.
