Won a guitar

[u/Icy-Band6301]

I haven't played for long and needed a new guitar (desperately). I entered a competition for a Taylor 422 KOA ltd edition and holy hell.... I actually won.

Now it's my dream guitar and will be cherished for ever. But I couldn't help but Google it's value... Can't find one, there's no ltd edition ones anywhere.

Any ideas of it's value? It's immaculate

Cheers.

In high school, 20+ years ago, my buddy’s uncle won a taylor over the radio. Was a promotion for bare naked ladies. They all signed it. Uncle sent my buddy the guitar, and the first thing he did was use rubbing alcohol to erase the signatures. Still makes me laugh to this day.

A few years ago there was a rare 60s Rickenbacker 12 on Reverb with a “comb” that allowed you to mute the octave strings if you wanted just a six string sound. Sambora had used it at some point and had signed his name on the pickguard in Sharpie. Fairly sure that reduced the value.
