Yamaha FG-300

Acquired new in early 70's. Pristine condition, perfect original Yamaha case. I would like to have some idea of valuation for our insurance.

Hi, David--

Thanks for your donation! Here is the Blue Book general info:

FG-300
- dreadnought-style body, select spruce top, rosewood back and sides, round soundhole with multi-ring rosette, multi-ply top and back binding, mahogany neck, 14/20-fret bound rosewood fingerboard with split parallelogram inlays, bound headstock, three-per-side chrome-plated tuners, adj. rosewood bridge with pearl inlays, large three-point tortoise pickguard, available in Natural finish, mfg. 1969-1973.

The pricing info:

Excellent $325 - 400
Average $200 - 250

***The Blue Book is an indication of what collectors are paying for the guitar. I would insure it for more simply because it cannot be replaced.

Best Wishes,
Lynne
