I hope it ain't nobody around here, but that thing's been run up to $500. now, and it's still got time left. It's an early 70's model and looks like it's had the exhaust snout whacked off. The seller isn't making much claim about condition except it turns free.

The problem with these units is, they've gotta be sent off somewhere to be gone through and everybody that's experienced with em is real pricey. It looks like a lot to pay for a display and my partner spent $1800 inside one that turned freely too. An MC1 which is a good bit stronger than the old SSM sold on our forums recently for $650. and it had never been run.

Just thought I'd give an opinion in case any of the ole' boyz around here have sniper biddin' on their mind, it's a blind gamble against the odds to pay anything like that for one of those units.

Yeah, that's close John. I know you're gonna bid on that old dinasaur when you've probably got a truckload of #4's.
