Jim, I bought one of these a couple of years ago for $1000 . . . and have been wondering if I overpaid or really NEEDED it (of course I didn't *need* it!)

Seeing this E Bay specimen helps me realize I did the right thing--and oughta play it more. Beautiful cabinet, great sound.

The price is in the ballpark. The one I play with the Malpass Brothers on their Hank tribute shows went for 1100.00 about five years ago.

I don't expect this one to go for the starting bid...would probably expect to see at least $1500 - $1600.
