You seem to be the resident “expert” on older guitar valuation.
I can’t seem to get a straight answer. I have a Les Paul Deluxe
Gold Top bought new in 1971 (a hard earned $ 300) with the slim humbucker pickups.

The guitar is in very good to excellent shape, a couple small checks in the finish near the cut away, other wise all original, in original rectangular case
with orange plush velour. The back is pristine clear as is the front.

I would like to sell it actually as I play only acoustic these days and
cannt really find a comparable axe on Ebay.
I am guessing something in the $ 2500 – $ 3,500 range.

Can you offer any way to determine the value?

Thanks
