Or better still, tell this forum what it is and add pictures and we can all guess randomly....then buy it from you and then sell it to each other and then sell it back to you in 3 years time as by then you would have regretted selling it.
Plus what is the valuation for
Insurance purpose - View to a sale to a dealer or as a private seller - For an estate/probate - All will/can have a different value - As @fretfinder mentions you can ask ATB but a buying price and selling price are different values
The likes of Gardiner and Houlagate will offer a free expectation as to what price it might sell for in an auction - But even then the final price could be give or take 10/20% of that expectation
Some dealers will charge a valuation fee based on the guitars value - Some owners won't like that - But in many ways, if you don't know what it is worth, but want a free dealers valuation, in order to ask the right price on e-bay/reverb, so all the gain is to your benefit , then you can't blame a dealer for such a stance
Valuation is for insurance and interest.I've had it 11 years and changed my insurance from Allianz and added it to my home insurance.I've been reticent to approach dealers as stated above for the reasons you mention.I 'd like to know a fair valuation if i had to claim on insurance and go and buy another if I could find one.It is not a guitar for sale atm . I hadn't considered the estate /probate valuation. Sorry about the link ,I think i've done it right at my end,I can see the pictures alright.
Beauty..
