Default How to Determine the Value of a Guitar

Hey everyone,

I was over a friends house, and she had a Yamaha guitar kicking around. Of course, I could not resist, and picked it up and played it for quite a while. Even my partner agreed with me that the darn thing sounded great.

I emailed Yamaha, and here is what I got for info:

Here is the info on the FG336SB guitar. Year(s) Sold: 1977-81 Original MSRP(US$): $193.00 Top: Spruce Back / Sides: Mahogany Neck: Nato Fingerboard: Indian Rosewood Color(s): Sunburst

He said he could not tell me of the current value. Anyone know how to determine this? What is interesting is that the fingerboard is indian rosewood!
The only thing I did not like about it was the extremely narrow bridge spacing, otherwise, it was really great.

I thought that Yamaha could give me a guestimate of the current value, but that referred me to a dealer or to ebay. Let me know if you folks have any ideas.

Lisa
