Can someone help me date this guitar?

[Donnie B.]

Model Number: CE100BLD
Serial Number: KA100126

Might be looking to move it if it's worth decent cash. Thanks for any info.

Welcome.

The serial number makes it a 1981 according to the dating site. CE100 in Blond, or Blonde if your guitars are ladies.

Sounds familiar

Thanks for the info. Any ideas what it would be worth? I have a bunch more pictures if anyone would like to see them. Let me know.

So, is that a CE100 of a CE100D?

According to my worn copy of the 2009 Vintage Guitar Price Guide, it should be worth somewhere between 1100 and 1500. The CE100D is in the upper end of that bracket. In my opinion, however, these values run about 10% too high for most guitars.

Hey Donnie you want to see her sister?

My 1982;

Except mine is stamped with the wrong serial number prefix! it's CE100154!

So, is that a CE100 of a CE100D?
At this time since they only came with two pick-ups (The "D" for double) they just used CE100.

Wow!

Thanks, Grot. My copy of he guide doesn't explain it well, and the "Holy Book" doesn't get to that era.
