Looking for a Casady bass in central Texas

[rdcowan]

Hey fellow TBers. I am thinking of buying an Epiphone Jack Casady bass, but no one has one in stock to test out. I was wondering if anyone in central Texas (Austin, Houston, Dallas) has one that I might be able to meet with and try it out. I know MF and GC have liberal return policies, but I don't want to shell out the money before I at least play one for a bit. Could any one help me out? Just looking to meet up somewhere and play for a bit and see if I really like the neck and sound. I have a Fender Aerodyne you could play while I pluck around on your Casady.

Danny Ray's in Round Rock had one last time I was there. Give him a call.

Thanks. I'll give them a call. I used to live in Round Rock, but I'm not familiar with the name.

I've never been there but a friend swears by them.

You can buy used from GC's website and have it delivered to your local store. You're gonna have to pay for it first, but if you don't like it you can return it and eat the shipping and if it's busted you can return it and get your shipping back.

Check the Austin Craigslist - I saw a silver burst one last week that was going for $500 or something like that. Good luck!

There a actually two listed on the Austin site, neither is mine.

Good luck,
