Since you say it is mint and if I read your post correctly, one owner, I would say a minimum of $500 USD, possibly a good bit more to a collector.

Thanks for the info ;)...might try advertising it and see what happens.  Don't think she will part with it for any less then $500 though.

I have a lovely old, nylon string, Italian, Acoustic Guitar which my Ex-Missus bought for me in 1960, (to keep me happy while she was entertaining the Troops, etc!), and over the years as it slowly aged, (the Guitar and me), it has sounded better and better, like an old Stradivarius Violin....

...wonderful instruments... (Me and my Guitar!).... ;)...!

Paul... ;D....!

The Missus has long since disappeared from the scene...but I've still got my trusty Guitar!... [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]...!

It's obviously not rare or highly coveted, but the mint/original condition would make it most valuable in its field.
Keep it in a good case, tune and play it regularly, and do not clean, polish, or refinish it!!! Just dust it once in a while and make sure your hands are clean before you play it.
