Edit-OK. The info I find is that first off, the Super 300,though it cost less the 400 is still considered to be a very fine instrument and they are rather rare and collectible, not many being built,even more so the cutaway version. Here's the only reference I can find as to prices.
Like I said, the neck damage hurts the value a lot, but I can't say how much. Getting it repaired properly will increase it's present value,but it will still be worth less then had it been in the same nice original condition as the rest of the guitar. You should get a professional opinion. It may very well be worth putting some money into this guitar. I would have Gruhn do an on line appraisal on the guitar.He's a well trusted vintage guitar expert.It cost $50,but it's worth it given the potential value of the guitar. Here's his site.Click on "Appraisal" for details. .
If you try to get an appraisal locally,don't just go to any music store and expect to get a fair or accurate one. You need to find someone who really knows vintage guitars and won't give inaccurate info or try to low ball it thinking they buy it off you for way less then it's worth. By the way,how did you get a hold of this guitar?

Here's some info on the two. Scroll down.
I can't say exactly what that is on the back of the neck,only that the finish in that area is obviously badly damaged. Might be worth it to have a competent repair person have a look at it and see if it can be made to look better at a reasonable cost.
