Good deal?--325v63 on the 'bay

Trying to return the favor to you all for turning me on to nice guitar recently. I'm not an expert on the prices of the 325v63s, but this one looks pretty clean.

thought someone might be interested

Cheers, Bill

Yep, I would say that's a good deal. I just bought a beat-up v59 for $100 less, and this one looks pretty clean to me.

what would be the 'average' to 'high' price for a JG V63?

Would these be more valuable than, say, an early 80s 320?

The early 80's are more collectible and worth much more...

My 325v59 was made in December of 1984.

That is about the time I remember those being introduced. Would love to see a picture of it, Gary.

Here it is:

Interestingly, it has factory-original Kluson Deluxe doubleline tuners (not reissue tuners). Except for the discoloration of the TRC and lower pickguard due to age, and the loss of a little of the black paint around the Bigsby name on the tailpiece, it's in pretty good shape.
