Instrument Buying and Selling

An Alvarez 5212 Regent acoustic guitar is worth about $75 - $100 online or by private seller in great cosmetic & fully working condition. Offering the instrument with a case could push it up to $115 or so, but probably not much more. A retailer would like charge around $110 - $125.

I just bought one off Craig's List in Branson for $200. Looks and works good (so far). Gulbransens were among the better organs made back when. I played a Gulbransen Realto at a big ice rink in California a few times in the 70's.

What is the age of my Ludwig and Co. piano number 46170?

A Mexican made fender strat is 500-600 dollars while American strats are 1000 dollars.

The short answer is yes, Crafter guitars are good guitars. What I can tell you is that you want to look at the basic appointments to make sure you get a good guitar. Just like a Martin, Guild, or Taylor; Crafter guitars that have solid tops, L.R. Baggs electronics and grover tuners are excellent guitars. I have several acoustic guitars and I have to say that playability and tone I get with my Crafter guitars is second to none. So, if you don't mind a lesser known (in the USA only, even Harrod's stocks these!) guitar then a Crafter is the right choice for you. The absolute best thing to do is go to a dealer who has other well known brands and play them side by side and make a choice on your own.

The SF-400 was built in Japan.

It really depends on condition, amount of refurb needed, etc. Unfortunately, the fact that it is both a Wurlitzer and a spinet, make it worth very little, even in good condition.

After looking up the serial number you provided, I believe it to have been manufactured in 1949.

If you are looking to sell the piano, a member of the Piano Technician's Guild can appraise the piano for a fee.

Likely though, It will cost nearly as much to move this particular piano as it is actually worth.

value of Lowry Jubilee organ model m525

This organ model was made around 1968. The band box and rythm sections do not work anymore because of diodes and dried out capacitors. But I degress = the value of this organ is at best a few hundred dollars depending on condition. Originally sold for 6000+ dollars. Was featured on Lawrence Welk shows too.

They are okay euphonium and are great for student use in middle school or high school bands. Although they are good student euphoniums they are not very good if you comparing them to a professional grade euphonium that is compensating. If you are looking for an instrument that is cheaper and just to use for school than a Cecilio euphonium is a good choice sense they are only around 600 dollars brand new. But if you are a really dedicated euphonium player do not waste your money on one of these, save up and buy a really nice compensating euphonium. Compensating euphoniums are professional grade euphoniums and only certain brands like Besson, Yamaha, Willson, and Sterling make them. You will not find a new compensating euphonium for less than 3000 dollars and Bessons and Willsons are as high as 7000 dollars brand new.

Put the bell on your lap, position the lead pipe away from your head. Look down towards the bell. The model number should be engraved in that area. If you're looking for the serial number, I'd try looking on a valve casing, often the second valve.

2000-2001 is the serial number and it's made in America.

American Deluxe fender sort of suggests , go on fender supports page or to a guitar shop that sells fenders and you'll know 100% as it's very difficult to answer some questions on here without photos.

Baldwin started manufacturing in 1959 at serial number 655948 and then 1960 at serial number 679844. In that case, the serial number 673394 would belong to a Baldwin piano produced some time in the second half of 1959.

A Knabe piano with serial 165268 would have been built sometime between 1960 and 1961. First produced in 1837, Wm. Knabe pianos were, in their time, widely popular and well-reputed instruments, having been used by the likes of Francis Scott Key to the New York Metropolitan Opera.

The Cable-Nelson Piano you own according to your serial number was built in Chicago in 1909. This was 4 years after Nelson joined the company in 1905, and before the company turned it's Nelson Line in to their lower line of pianos which was the era of the Everett piano, this happened before they started to build their pianos at a new factory in South Bend, Michigan.

Yes. Typically classical guitars have wider necks, some dreadnought guitars have wider necks than most thin-body guitars. Always play a guitar before you buy it to see if it's what you want and if it fits you and your playing style.
