The best we can do from thousands of miles away, with a few (actually quite good, by the way) pictures, is a quick guess. They asked for a guess, they were going to talk to someone locally who knew more about vintage instruments. I’m willing to bet that OP will find a middle ground they’re willing to offer it for, and make decisions from there.
rugburn@lemmynsfw.comto guitars@lemmy.world•Trying to evaluate the price of my dad's 74 stratocasterEnglish23·1 month agoMy bad. Aside from looking up the serial, I guess i should have asked if the truss rod still works, any lifted or excessively worn frets, excessively wobble in the tuners, do the electronics work properly or are they scratchy, when OP clearly isn’t a guitar person. Why don’t you ask him to ship it to you on your dime so you, as the premier buyer and seller of vintage guitars, can take a real good look at it, otherwise YOU’RE also doing the bare minimum. Not sure how deep I should get. OP asked what’s a good range to look at selling a vintage instrument on behalf of someone else. I did. You have a problem with my 30 second assessment, fine. Go look at the instrument in person. Then apply the typical “its probably realistically worth a grand, I’ll give you half that, cash” approach most “vintage” dealers give to people unfamiliar with what they have. Could I have pointed to reverb.com in my initial post? I should have, but the thought slipped my mind.

rugburn@lemmynsfw.comto guitars@lemmy.world•Trying to evaluate the price of my dad's 74 stratocasterEnglish24·1 month agoIndeed I was. Didn’t think that needed to be explained, but I guess this is the internet
rugburn@lemmynsfw.comto guitars@lemmy.world•Trying to evaluate the price of my dad's 74 stratocasterEnglish22·1 month agoI understand it’s what someone actually pays vs what it lists at, but less than a full page scroll nets one listed @$7999.99. Pass the pipe.
rugburn@lemmynsfw.comto guitars@lemmy.world•Trying to evaluate the price of my dad's 74 stratocasterEnglish102·1 month agoSerial appears to come from a 1976, made in Fullerton, CA USA. Prices for a good specimen range between around $4000-8000 USD, not sure what that translates to where you are

Although the D would be why you’re taking plan B. So maybe plan B or C. But I guess it’s called plan B. I guess you don’t have to read this post now.

Somewhere out there, there’s a drummer who isn’t sure if they’re good enough, and a bass player, singer, etc. Find some like-minded musicians and see where it takes you. I’m not suggesting going thru craigslist and replying to everyone looking for “experienced shredder” or whatever, but there are people out there in the same situation you are.
I laughed way harder at this than I should have

It Both Under and Overextrudes in Batched areas and sometimes leaves what looks like Overheated/Melted Ripples?English2·4 months agoI had this happen on my p1s with a roll of Inland pla, but not with a roll of their pla +, I also noticed my nozzle was worn (who knew that after 850 hours you should probably replace it). Haven’t gone back to the normal pla yet, but those might be things to look at?
Who knows, maybe serving 15 of 21 years sentenced in prison changed him like Derek Vineyard in American History X…
Or not.
