1976 Alvarez DY74 – This instrument looks like it has never been out of the case, although I’ve watched my father play it my whole life. NO DAMAGE! Can anyone tell me what it’s worth? It has now been passed down to my son.[/quote]
DY 74 WELLINGTON
– dreadnought style, solid spruce top, round soundhole, 5-stripe bound body and rosette, tortoise pickguard, rosewood back/sides, mahogany neck, 14/20-fret ebony fingerboard with varying pearl inlay, ebony bridge with white pearl dot pins, rosewood veneer on peghead, 3-per-side chrome tuners, available in Natural gloss finish, mfg. circa 1975-1998.
Excellent Average
$525 – 600 $350 – 425
The above info is from the Acoustic Bluebook, however if yours is a 1976 model, it may be worth a little more since the veneer on the headstock was Jacaranda instead of Rosewood.
