Trying to confirm the age and value of my old Emmons D10. I’ve combed through all the posts on here but could still use some help.

Wraparound
Only serial # I can find is 1400 (no D) stamped in the wood near leg hole
Decal, which is scraped off, no screw holes for badge.
24 frets
Orange, red, blue, yellow atoms
Wood pedal stop rail
Bakelite volume
Black mica
Black flocking
Brown case with red interior

I can’t see the date stamp on the pot unless I tear it out and clean it up, so I thought I’d start here.

I bought it used in 1977 and it was already pretty rough then

The E9 neck is playable but It needs to be restored and I probably can’t afford it so may try to sell as is. C6 needs work.

Pictures would greatly help in assessing its age and value, although the 24 fret board should make it no later than mid 65.
