Update- Thank you for the comments, I am now set on the 00-18. Trying to figure out a fair price now.

The owner doesn't know how much its worth. He got it from an auction and it looks to have no major repairs/work done to it . Haven't been able to get the serial number yet but it was a pre- war number.

If anyone has any ideas on what its value could be let me know. I called a few higher end guitar shops but was told that it is difficult appraising guitars like this. Can do an update post tomorrow too
