I am looking for a new bass. I had a thread about it here: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=94065 however, the situation has changed a bit. I found a brand new Peavey Cirrus for about $1099 and it seems like a good deal. what do you think?
By the way, the guy in the store said that the "normal" price for the Cirrus is $2700 (or rather 27 000 SEK), and that they got some limited shipment. is it really that expensive in the US?
no, its even worse here with lousy bastard dealers! the top model was about $3500 or more (if I remember well, that was a Cirrus 6 with Tiger Maple top, but this surely was the most expensive) whereas Warwicks have lower prices here (as the Warwick dealer is not such an a$$hole like them): I got my Corvette Standard 6 for a bit less than $1550, brand new, made for me
$1099 is a decent price.. but it might be worthwhile to haggle the price down. I got mine new in 1998 for $999. Who knows, maybe they upgraded them or something. Give it a try though, you might make away like a bandit!
