What is my Gibson guitar worth?

I know these aren't the best pictures but is my old Gibson guitar worth anything? I cannot find a serial number anywhere inside or outside the instrument.

Update:

It does say LGO inside the guitar.

    The LG-O was made from 1958 to 1974, and it looks like you have the plastic screw-on bridge which ran from '62 to '67. If the pickguard were not missing we could narrow it down further. Prices for the '62-64 model in average condition run $450-550, and if it's later it'd be $350-450. This one looks below average, although cleaning might help.

    OK, so it's an LGO model. There is probably a serial number inside somewhere. With that information, you can get a year it was made. Vintage Guitar magazine publishes a guide to guitar values. With what it looks like from those photos, you's will be the low end of the value.

    A local guitar shop would be able to help out and find that kind of info for you.

    Identity ought to see it first. Seem into it. See what sort. . Be certain the neck isnt warped. And strings are $5 generally and are very easy to vary more often than not. If its good. Go for it its a best deal. First time i strummed a gibson i instantly fell in love with it
