Hi, Jeff--

The serial number indicates that your guitar was made in either 1995 or in 2005. The 21047 numbers indicate the sequential number of guitars produced to that date.

I am assuming that your guitar was made in 1995.

Here is the Blue Book info:

1993-99 (w/10-top & birds)
Mint: $2,000
Exc.+ $1,625
Exc. $1,400
Avg + $1,050
Avg. $775
General: $650

If your guitar was manufactured in 2005, the numbers are basically the same except for:

Add $650 for flame maple 10-top.
Add $850 for quilt maple 10-top.
Add $360 for abalone bird inlay.
Add $440 for gold hardware.
Add $1,530 for Artist Package Flame and $1,680 for Artist Package Quilt (disc. 2006): Artist Grade flame or quilted maple top, translucent toned back, rosewood headstock veneer, Paua bird inlay in neck, gold hardware, and leather hardshell case.

Hope this helps!

Lynne
