Not surprising. Even for a beater, that was a nice price.

I don't think it was a beater, they were just closing the case and walking out as I got there, and the brief look said it was pretty nice.
 
Koa topped.
 
He who hesitates is lost.  Sigh.
 
I need Paul to tell me there will be another.

A couple of years ago, I found an Epic 5 in superb walnut on craigslist for $650.  I bought it and then sold it to the bass player in my band for what I paid.  Great deals are admittedly few and far between, but they are out there if you keep looking and have a little luck.
