If I have this right the number on the headstock is 8 1639 4D
Is this worth $250.00 it also has a pickup mounted on it. Let me know If I need some more letters/numbers
No way to tell. It's a 1984 s/n. Might be a bargain. Might be a disaster.
Have you seen/played the guitar?

A good friend in Wyoming has it
You must understand. That's meaningless to me.
I only deal with tangibles. Condition. Model (can't tell by s/n) RECENT set up (40y guitars, 90% probability it needs a setup), finish.
You name it.
Sooooo...?
Not picking on you. Just the reality of the situation and question.

Well he is a member here. He has been a friend for a while. It comes with a case. This is kind of a memory I would be buying. He is 93.

I think that is a bargain. They are asking more on Reverb.
The late Frank Harlow would try not to work on those. I asked him about those. Wanted something cheaper to carry around the country in our rv.
He said many were just bad.
But for likely $400 a good luthier might be able to help. Set up.
Well I wanted something to remeber him by. And, the guitar sounds like it should and a hardshell case. He might tune it up and get it going. I felt like for the price I could not go wrong.
That’s not much to spend if it has sentimental value and you’ll likely never try to sell it.
I'd buy it for that price!

I would never sell it. And being some what built similar to the originals. I would like for the Bro Oswald, Uncle Josh and others of that genre
