what's my guitar worth

Post by cavedvr »

I have a G&L SC-3 that I bought new sometime in the late 80's (if I remember correctly). Serial number G026969. I'm not a pro so this guitar is in excellent condition in fact it has never been outside of my house. Can anyone tell me when it was made and possibly what it might be worth?

Based upon the serial number and G&L's Chronology Page,
the build year would be 1990. However, the most accurate way is to check the build dates located on the neck heel and
neck pocket. See How do I determine an instrument's age?.

As far as value of your SC-3, check the recently updated Zachary Fjestads' Blue Book of Electric Guitars 13th edition as
was mentioned in the Public Service Announcement sub-forum.

Hope this helps.
