04 Les Paul identification

[cannibal]

I hate to do it, but I need to sell my 04 Led Paul studio :(

I had hoped to lurk on this site to gather the information on the guitar but it seems like that kind of knowledge is gathered over many years. I would like to know what model this is and what a fair price would be.

I bought this guitar new at guitar center with matching case. It has only been played a handful of times in the last ten years, it even has the original strings. I looked up the serial number and it was built in Nashville on Sep 9th, 2004. Number 168.

I haven't made the time to play since I got it, and it just sits there. I need the money and I hate to sell her, but she deserves to be played.

I don't know anything about it outside of that. It's in immaculate condition.

What would be a fair price for this guitar? I would hate to unknowingly rip someone off.

it went under a couple of names.. like faded mahogany studio, or a faded brown.

 

in any case it doesn't have maple cap and is "just" mahogany on mahogany

 

original strings won't make or break a sale, since a pack of strings can be had from $2-$20.

 

 

 

 

looks like ebay has them between $500-700

Thanks Eracer_Team! I only mentioned the strings to indicate how (unfortunately) little it has been played. It's a lot less than I was expecting this guitar to fetch, but anything helps right now. Thanks again!

Hey, if you have to rip somebody off, doing it unknowingly is probably the best way. My conscience wouldn't allow me to do it any other way. Actually, this is a buyer's market lately and you're the one who are probably going to take a loss on the deal not the buyer sorry to say.
