Hi thenixhex311
Congrats to you and your family that you all have such a wonderful guitar in your midst!
It is a very valuable, and potentially VERY very valuable guitar depending on certain aspects of it's condition.
It would really be worth it for you to consider making a 2 or 3 day week day or weekend trek to either Gruhn's Guitars in Nashville, or The Music Emporium in Lexington Mass, for an "in hand" inspection and appraisal. It's a long drive, either way, I know, but that guitar is really really worth the effort to get as accurate an appraisal as possible.
I would call each of those two shops and discuss it with them, and see what they think, and then maybe choose whichever one you feel most comfortable with to schedule an in hand inspection/appraisal.
That guitar really does deserve your best efforts to find out, as accurately as possible, what kind of overall shape it is in, and what it is currently worth on the market...even if you folks intend to keep it in the family...for insurance purposes, or, even if you are considering selling it at some point in time.
duff
