This estimate is low. This instrument is worth $4,000. Bring it to a professional to get it appraised. The value you were given was for a straight 1932 017. The "S" factor increases the value substantially.

Thank you Lynne! Here are the #'s 017-S and 50429.

Here is the Blue Book pricing:
1929-1948 Excellent $2,750 - 3,250 Average $1,800 - 2,200
**A pickguard was optional between 1932 and 1934. The 0-17 and 0-15 models are nearly identical with the only differences being the 0-17 has body binding and a gloss finish.
