not sure why used Sierras don't seem to fetch as high a price as other brands. they're top notch and dependable as they come.

Thanks everyone for the responses. Really appreciate it!
Fyi, I pulled the trigger on a used GFI Ultra II in mint condition along with a Peavey Nashville 112 Amp and Goodrich Volume pedal. All for $3k, so a bit over my budget but I'd gotten so used to the Ultra I've been fortunate to borrow, that I felt i should stick with it if possible. I knew that I'd probably be more satisfied in the long run.
So, look for me on the techniques and practice posts. Looking forward to the next few years with this black beauty.
Best,
E

Good decision. A few bucks may have saved you lots of headaches.

Well done. GFIs are a great value, and the folks at GFI will do you right.
In the long run, I think youll be glad you didn’t get the student model. Spend a bit more and got an axe you won’t need to upgrade.
GFIs are great guitars. Enjoy the ride.

Yes. Per GFI's site, the main difference from the Expo to the Ultra is the finish of the guitar. Plus some options are only available on the Ultra.
You can do better than the factory price at the authorized dealers.
