Uzi69 Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 I own a Heritage H-170 DC from 1986. I'm thinking of selling it and wonder how much is it worth? Thanks, Max
DetroitBlues Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 Depends on how fast you want to sell it.... Per Reverb, probably $1300-$1500 if you want to wait for the right buyer... To sell it fast,, I'd say $1,000 or less...

Cajun2 Posted June 28, 2017 Posted June 28, 2017 A couple of factors to the price as you work to post pictures: - Condition obviously. Amount of fret life, dings, etc. - Finish. if you have a really nice Heritage maple finish, it would increase the value. Some of the Heritage flame tops just shout "buy me" - Pickups. If it has the standard Schaller pickups, then worth less than upgraded pickups. Most here will swap them out - Neck thickness. Heritage hand rolls the necks, and if you have a thicker neck, that will appeal to a subset of folks My own opinion is it would be hard to get more than $1000 in today's market. Reverb has a ton of Heritage guitars listed between $1000 - $2000, but guitars aren't fetching top dollar these days. I just picked up a beautiful H140 for $750 in an eBay auction, and there were a few others going in that range lately. The 170 is less marketable than the single cuts (not saying anything bad about it - I had a killer 170 Gold Top that was as nice as any Heritage I have owned). Best way to price guitars is to go to eBay advanced search features, and see what others have sold for recently. But if no 170s sold recently (which I just confirmed), then you can't really compare. Good luck with the sale!
