$525

No experience with these - but seems like a decent deal.

Yes I owned one briefly in February. Paid more than $200 more for it. I enjoyed the bass, so I'm glad this popped up.

Interesting. Demand dries up and prices plummet as companies dump stock. But if you don't jump right away when they were announced, you could run the risk of not getting one at all. Ah, the plight of a specialty market! :-)

Sweetwater has these available again at $525 but they are now special order only, so no free shipping or returns.

+1. The last lefty T-Bird I saw was at Rainbow Guitars right before Christmas. They were blowing it out for $1250.
