Hi Mark,  
 
Here's the details from the instrument file:
 
top: Maple
accent: none
body: Mahogany
body shape: Vector guitar (similar to what became the California Special)
neck: 3-piece Maple
scale: 25.5 long
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
bridge: Kahler
pickups: S-S-H4  
electronics: volume, filter, pickup selector switch, mono output
originally made for: Zapf's Music, PA.
birthday: October 2, 1986
 
I can confirm you're the original owner. I'm really no good at market values or appraisals - we just make and sell new ones. Retail on a similar new build to this would be in the $7500 region. So that's what it should be insured for, and maybe some other Club members can give you an idea about the value as a used piece.
