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.

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 stratocasterEnglish2·28 days agoNo problem!
rugburn@lemmynsfw.comto guitars@lemmy.world•Trying to evaluate the price of my dad's 74 stratocasterEnglish2·28 days 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 stratocasterEnglish2·28 days 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 stratocasterEnglish10·28 days 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

Who knows, maybe serving 15 of 21 years sentenced in prison changed him like Derek Vineyard in American History X…
