Musicians Friend was showing they were back ordered and then emailed that they had been discontinued so they cancelled my order. I called Sam Ash and told them about MF price and they were able to do $599.99 which is still almost $200 off. Only two left in stock (1 Black w/ Maple and 1 Natural w/ Maple) and doesn't sound like there will be any more. Not the steal I was hoping for when I saw MF price but still a great deal on a sweet bass. Do it...

Music123.com still lists a used one for $399, which is about as low as it goes.

Ha! I've a feeling they're finally catching onto this stuff at musiciansfriend and music123. ATKs went excellently, I think the Fenders got out of control...

I for one am happy cuz I really can't afford to do this again.

I didn't come out too much worse through Sam Ash...I would've had to pay sales tax at MF and I was able to get free cables and 3 sets of strings from SA. I also got the natural finish with rosewood fretboard that I wanted...plus they actually have it in stock so I'll get it fairly soon. $499 would've been nice but $599, no sales tax, + a few goodies isn't too bad either. Now I refuse to stop by TB for at least a few months now because I can't afford to come across any more deals that I can't pass up!
