Old CARLOS Korean guitar

I am trying to determine th date of an old CARLOS guitar with a paper label that says KOREA. I think it's 70s? I paid $10 for it. It sounds pretty good.

ANSWER

The exact date of manufacture cannot be determined without a model number. There guitar were imported from 1976 to the late 80's.

Early models were made in Japan and then later
they were imported from Korea. These guitar are not listed in the Blue Book, but typically are selling for $50.00-$150.00 according to internet sources.
