Takamine F-340 SD

by Alex L.

Hi,

Mum has owned this guitar since 1978 (when it was bought new) and has been kept in its case more or less since then.
The Serial No. on the guitar show's that it is a 1977 model F-340 SD. It has been fitted with a non-intrusive (no drilling or anything needed) pickup and the only drilling which has been done (by a guitar repair shop) was to add the neck strap button thing.

Could you please give me an idea of the value?

Thanks,
Alex
