Nelson, that may be a tough call. Usually, the koa is an upgrade cost-wise from the maple, maybe $300 - $500 at retail.

Assuming excellent to mint condition, for a '91 used, it should be around $1900 - $2200 in this part of the country from individuals. It'd be higher in a retail store, I think. I could see where it might be higher in NY or CA.

Man, this is a tough one.
