mrklgn Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Hi everyone, This is my Martin M36, bought from Andertons in 2014. It's done its fair share of gigging and, though it's been looked after, has accumulated a few bruises. Nothing too ugly, but it's quite obviously not a new guitar. The original handle on the case gave up at JFK airport in 2015, so I fashioned one from a bin bag and it's held up ever since... I've stopped playing as much and am considering selling. My only concern is I won't see the true value back as it's not in mint condition. I'm not needing to sell financially, it's more I'm struggling to justify owning a beautiful guitar and not really playing. Wondering if there would be any interest and what it might be worth? Tldr; guitar's been around the block and not in mint condition, will I see a fair value if I sell? What might its value be?

Dad3353 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 From the few ads I can see, and an 'argus' figure for that model, I'd say around the £2000 mark (would be more for a vintage one...). From the photos, it doesn't look to be too 'reliced', so anything less would be more of a bargain for the buyer (assuming, of course, that the 'Martin' sound is there..!). Way out of my reach, and I can't play well enough to justify it (I'm a drummer, so...), but Good Luck with the sale, if you decide to move it on. For my part, I have too much sentimental value invested in my guitars, so they'll never be sold; their monetary value is therefore academic.
