1982 Guitar Trader Les Paul #9 094X

[Intubator]

Hello Folks, Unfortunately I am considering the sale of one of my most coveted guitars, a Guitar Trader of Red Bank NJ Les Paul. I purchased this guitar from the estate of the original owner five years ago, he was a collector and literally never played it. The guitar is 100% original and unmodified with the exception of a single string change when I purchased it. The guitar is equipped with Tim Shaw PAF's, has a long tenon, and all of the correct identifying features of a Guitar Trader model, and is very rare in tobacco sunburst. It has been on display on a wall hanger for a couple of months now and is a little dusty, I will be getting it cleaned up tomorrow and will post more pics if anyone is interested. I really have no idea how to value this, so I was hoping for some input from the forum if anyone reading is familiar with these. Thanks for the input, I appreciate it.

Nice Les Paul...! Can't answer your question though. Please repost in the Norlin section - you're bound to get good info there.
