I just got curious as I haven't thought about guitars for a while. Looks 
like your little friend is selling for around $1200. Bet you never saw this 
day coming. My Martin was only made between '55 and '69. Selling for around 
$3800-$5000. I paid close to $600 new for it and had to buy it on time as I 
didn't have that much money. Nothing changes, I can't buy one for $3800 now 
either.  <BG>
