The seller usually knows basically how much its worth, but its true value really depends on the buyer and how much he loves and values that particular guitar.  Who's the buyer ? (Collector ? Reseller ? Enthusiast ?)   The buyer sometimes can determine the price, it can play a major factor on how much money you can get for your guitar. For example, true collectors usually pay more than what its actually worth because they tend to keep their guitars for investments and they know their historic values.  Resellers on the other hand tend to care less about the guitar and more about price to make profits, they are bargain hunters.  Is it all original? ...

From 1902 to 1947 Gibson serial numbers started at 100 to 99999. 2. From 1947 to 1961 Gibson serial numbers started with an "A" usually followed by 3 to 6 digits. 3.
