1967 Guild F 30 NT

by Don Yarsih

Guitar has seen some wear and has a crack in the top that was repaired back in 1970.

I was thinking about having it re-furbished back to as good as new by a competent luthier but wonder if the guitar is worth putting money in.

ANSWER

Hi, Don--

Here are the Blue Book values:

1959-1969
Excellent $1,400 - 1,750
Average $1,000 - 1,150

If the guitar is worth fixing up to YOU, then it would be a good idea. Be aware, however, that any restoration will not increase the resale value of the guitar, but may actually DECREASE the value.
