Going Rate for Vintage Gibson LP circa '70s-'80s (and maybe '90s)

Adam L · May 5, 2018

I wanna,buy a vintage Gibson LP from the 70s-80s, and maybe '90s. The last one I,had was a '76 and it ruled. The going rate back then was $1500, which was probably 12 years ago. I'm just,curious,what a fair price would be flr this same,model today. It seems like they quality starts to decline somewhere,in late 80s-early 90s.

How much,more are the pre-70s LPs?

Thanks.

This isn't the Les Paul Price Index Commodities and Stock Exchange.

Look on Dealer sites, [Gbase], Reverb and ebay.

You are asking about many [dozens] different varieties of Les Paul models. There can't possibly be an average price comparing all this wide range of models.
Maybe be more specific? :ganz
