These guitars do not have adjustable truss rods and therefore the necks tend to have problems (which aren't cheap to repair.) The used ones I have seen were all selling in the $2,500 neighborhood. However, you can have a new one made at the custom shop (with an adjustable truss rod) for roughly the same price (if you don't make any changes.) To me, the new one was a no-brainer but if you can get the one you are interested in for closer to $1,500, then you could afford to repair it if needed. If you can get the one you are looking at for less than $1,500.......Grab it!
