Francisco Miguel Diaz

A local second hand shop has a pre-loved Francisco Miguel Diaz guitar for sale. It was made in 1994, and seems to me to have a cypress back and sides and an oregan pine (??) top - does not look like spruce or cedar to me. It has no model number, the fretboard is well worn, and the oregan top has numerous marks clearly made from the fingernails by tapping, both below the golpe plate and above the strings. It has a few minor scratches and smallish dents, but no cracks.

I felt it is very playable, although I prefer the sound of my Esteve 28R6F.

Asking price is $400.

Could anyone guide me on what they think this is worth?

Thanks nealf.

I was looking at it as a backup guitar. We sail out to Fraser Island off our coastline, and always like to have a guitar with me for sitting on beaches and playing, but don't like to take my Esteve around with me - keeping it as good as I can!
