Hi Stephen,

In all honesty we don't know a real value on this one so it would be a 
bit of guess work. I'm sure you have seen that there is very limited 
info on sold prices but we estimate a sale price of around £800. With 
this in mind, providing it is in good playing order we'd offer between 
£400-£500. Have a think and let us know if you want to go ahead.

Kind Regards,
Express Music
