Orville Thunderbird - going rate?

I'm considering an Orville T-Bird locally. It's black and looks to be all original except that it wears a Gibson nameplate.

What do you think they're worth? My thought was $1100 or so. I almost never see them.

Thanks!

That seems a bit high, since I typically see used Gibson Thunderbirds going from 1000-1200.

Ask here: Thunderbird Club Pt 6

That's where the T-Bird experts are.

It seems that you're close to the real thing. You might be happier getting a real bird.

Way too much, though it's probably better.
