My father recently passed and left quite a collection of guitars behind. Among them there is a 21 of 23 Custom Shop Stratocaster. I am trying to assess its value. In that mix he has a 25th Anniversary Strat (Silver) that has been played and a 35th Anniversary Strat with the lace sensor pickups. The 40th and 35th are pristine with case candy. The 25th has been played prior to him owning it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I do not have pictures yet but did find a recent listing on ebay for one of the 40th. I would be happy to answer any questions.

Thanks

Doubt the value of a piece like this could ever be carved in stone. By that I mean it could fluctuate quite a bit depending on the market and the whims of buyers.

Gruhn Guitars, who is very respected in the industry, does appraisals for a fee. The downside is that the appraisal could be lower than you'd expect and if used as a selling tool it could only serve to establish a maximum price point.

Thanks for the info, I am familiar with Gruhn. Essentially it is priceless to me and my family. I guess what I'm really trying to assess its place in the world of Stratocasters more so than the value. Thanks for the info!
