I POSTED HERE BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE FSR STRAT IS pretty popular, and those of you that do/dont have that knowledge would greatly help me whether you did or did not. However, I need to know the value of this guitar. I know this isn't the holy grail of guitars, and I also don't know what experts to call over the phone and get it appraised (over the phone). This is a limited edition Acoustic Fender Corona Brand FSR my grandmother had in her closet? *Which is massive haha. Corona must have had these made and partnered with Fender as their trademark is Copyrighted. There must be more value to this, they're rare, since they are FSR ( Fender Special Run/Factory Short Run). There should only be 250 or less in existence as that is what I have read about FSR guitars by Fender. I cannot find information on this guitar anywhere! Except luckily found one on Ebay, the seller priced it at $100, haha as the guitar itself is worth almost double that. I would like to know the estimated value, what make/model it is( I was thinking it may be in the DG series( DG-8S possibly). Mine is in pristine condition, nothing is damaged, but the pick guard does have a few scratches on it(from picking). :roll:

Here are some pictures for you to look over:

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP, I want to buy a new guitar and therefore am trying to learn as much as I can about this.WHO KNOWS!! :?:

Hi again Ethan,
While again, I pretty much stay away from giving values.....its a buyers market anyway....whatever someone will pay......but i think a couple of things would be pertinent at this point.
While perhaps in a few years, as a collectible the worth could certainly go up, as fhopkins pointed out, the retail new in 2007 was inexpensive.
Its made in China. nothin wrong with that, I just don't expect that it would bring a much higher price then the original.


Cheers,
rob

It seems this guitar isn't going to make the OP rich!

Yeah, I could imagine it hanging on the wall in some bar (or in some Mexican Food restaurant).

If anything the corona logo makes it less valuable.

I would view it as a novelty more than a guitar. I would pay 50 bucks for it and use it as a party favor.
