So this guitar has never been sold since it was new? It is an original '80s NOS SC-3?
Maybe that's why the owner thinks the value is so high.
That price would not be out of line for a brand new current production G&L, and the closest you could get to that would be an S-500.
Is it the original "Mustang" body shape (http://www.ggjaguar.com/sc-3-83.htm) or is it the 2nd generation SC-3 with more of a "Strat" shape (http://www.ggjaguar.com/sc-3-87.htm)?
Either way, the guitar is somewhat of a rarity.

I think a lot of folks get too hung up on what's something is 'worth' and what others think.... who cares?? If you love it - buy it. Easy - Peasy. No regrets that way + you'll most likely recoup your initial investment in the long run...

I guess my SC-3 isn't that rare. I looked at the registry, but there's no category for a '87.
