Question Hi-
I have a Granada Acoustic Guitar made by Takamine, Model TG60R. I am looking to trade this guitar for an electric for my son but cannot determine its value. Can you help? It is in great condition!
Answer The answer is about $150/$200 If you trade it in, you wont get so much for it. Doing an even trade with someone, I would accept like new Fender Squire guitars, or decent Fender Made in Mexico guitars. As a trade privately. Hope this helps..
