I WANT TO KNOW THE VALUE. IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND I DO HAVE THE CASE.

ANSWER

Hi, James--

The serial number indicates a 1962 manufacture date. Gibson serial numbers can be undependable. The only model manufactured in 1962 was the Les Paul Jr. with SG (double cutaway) body style.

Here is the Blue Book info for that model:

Mint $6,500
Exc.+ $5,250
Exc. $4,350
Avg.+ $3,500
Avg. $2,900
General $2,400

If this is not your guitar, maybe a picture or an approximate year would yield more information.
