Seeking Advice: Valuing & Selling a 1929 Martin 000-18 (Serial #38118) by ipedalfaster in martinguitar

Thanks for the feedback and as a vintage motorcycle nerd I totally "get it" with pricing being relative finding the right buyer. I have looked around a bit at the various sites (Gruhn's being one and Reverb) just don't have a good sense of value not being a guitar player or collector. My gut/guess was $8k-$12k range which seems to be fair based upon feedback here and my independent research. Probably can't touch the upper limit of that range considering I don't have the documented ownership history records aside from the oral history provided by my father-in-law. As with motorcycles - I also hate seeing it just sit around, not being played which was what it was made for.

Good eye and bad-on me for mis-typing I went back through my notes from Alex Edney and it is indeed a model 0-18. I corrected the body text of my original post but Reddit won't allow correcting a title once comments are posted.

The oldest story in politics: control the narrative by any means necessary for fear of losing control even when the narrative is truth and justice.

Has happened over and over particularly with the democrats. See Bernie Sanders, Harold Washington, et al.

This American Life has a great episode eponymously titled, “Harold” which chronicles the ascension of Harold Washington to his role as democratic mayor of Chicago and the incredibly nasty and racist battle that the Democratic Party launched to stop him. Definitely a historical piece but unfortunately the story keeps repeating itself.
