A Neobluegrass went up for $2200 and was on-hold the first time saw the ad ... and I check the ads at least twice a day.  Darn, a chance to step up for reasonable bucks and it was gone before I saw it.  It was about a 1.5 hour drive away.  Probably would have been a good buy.  One is for sale new for $2700 at a local shop and the replacement "Standard" is over $3K.  I would think that if I bought and it wasn't exactly what I wanted after a few months, I could just sold it and broken even.

I saw that, but it was an 2005 & that may have been one of those thick topped stinkers. I used to remember which dates to avoid.....I can't seem to recall them right now.
