I found a guy on CList selling what he says is a 1970's Hagstrom swede. I offered him 400 hundred for it which I feel is a fari price, however I don't really know hom much they go for. He's been insistant on selling it for $600. Is this a fair price? It's cherry red.
I actually like the look of the hagstrom swede and have read positive reviews about it. Thing is, is it worth trying to get an older one as opposed to just ordering a new one. They both have the H-bar truss rod correct?
If this is a solid deal, what should I look for in the serial number to make sure it's as old as he says it is?
