I'm thinking that's the letter "I" not the number 1 at the start of the serial number. That means "Your guitar was made at the Saein Plant, Korea, on March, 1987, 1997 or 2007, Production Number: 808." So probably 1997. If it's an LP Standard, it's probably worth around $400-500 max. You can get a good idea how much a guitar is worth by checking ebay completed listings, especially "sold listings." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinTheHood Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) Saein 1997 for sure. The average resale price for a typical LP Standard of that age is around 250 - 350 USD. Edited October 1, 2019 by RobinTheHood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
