I've been looking around the net and can't find much info pricing wise without posting to a list group.It always seems to me that most folk instruments outside of guitars go all over the board. Guitars have such appeal and are in great numbers so the pricing gets pretty understandable even for the rarest stuff. Not that you think the price is great or anything, but the collector market is so much bigger in guitars that the prices are almost standardized. Mandolins strike me as being second with banjos 3rd or lower.
I'll keep looking.
