Need help valuing this ObG 57 RI

[Frank1985]

I have a 57 RI ObG LP, manufactured in December 1993 within the Fujigen Factory. The guitar is actually in pretty good nick. The fretboard is ebony and features fret edge binding. I'm unable to find any info on this specific model from Reverb and Ebay's sold listings. Any idea what the value of it is?

Have a mod move this over to ‘other single cuts’ it’s where all the cool MIJ kids hang out.

I’m not particularly versed in the OBG stuff, but someone there will be.

The fret board will be rosewood rather than ebony as it's a standard not a custom. As for price a lot depends on where you're based to be honest, guitars always seem to be cheaper in the US than in europe.

Ah ok. I'm in the UK.

They usually go for around $1500 USD these days but you can probably get them for cheaper.

That would be a rosewood board, not ebony.
