at some point we changed the balladeers to a two piece neck to make the legends and up mo special. It was a little cheaper too.

Whoever got that 1612 for $275 should be very pleased. Mine is an '85 & it's looks exactly like that one, near as I can tell. It's a really great old guitar.

Nils,
Here's a 1112 (acoustic only - exactly like mine) with a five piece neck that went for only $255!!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=3743914838&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT]

Great deals on some great guitars but I was considering selling my 1112-4 and a few others on the 'bay but if that's all they're going to bring for near mint......I'll just hang on to mine!!

Insane isn't it Mike? Definitely a buyers market. I don't understand it, but I like taking advantage of the rediculous prices for these great old guitars.
