I am so impressed with what you can get in the mid and economy ranges these days. We had only royalty or crap. My first decent electric was a used '74 Les Paul that I bought in 1978 for the princely sum of $425. We are talking about $1,758.68 in today's money. I saved every loose penny for three years and sold my previous electric as well in order to buy that one and still have it. To be able to sell it to me at that price the dealer kept the Gibson case and put it in a Univox case. Little did he know that the Univox case was actually stronger!
