    My local mom and pop has one of these in Walnut for $200. EC, no case.

    Deal or no deal?

    these are Indonesian made, right?

    Thanks!

    It's a good price. I've seen them go used on here for $175-225 ish. They're used on musiciansfriend right now for $231. If it plays well, I'd pay $200 for it.

    Or you can get a brand new one from MF with their current coupon for $279.

    These are $279 new (no case) at Guitar Center. Assuming it's in good shape, $200 is a pretty good deal.

    Is it NEW or used? New it's a very good deal. Used, not so much

    I'll pass after I've seen these are included in a bass starter pack for $279. I was hoping it might be the higher end $749 priced model I've been reading about. That would be a deal...

    It's actually priced at $160 and I'm still no longer interested.

    Thanks to all helping me keep my money in my pocket!!

    I'm not sure what starter pack you're referring to. These are 279 by themselves. $160 in good condition? It's a very good bass. It's worth trying. You might be pleasantly surprised.
