You might consider the CAD VSM-1 (little brother to the VX2). Similar in many ways to the VX2, such as very smooth, versatile & forgiving. Originally listed at about half the VX2's price, can now be found occasionally between 350 - 600. I'd call this one a bargain in that range, as it is also destined to lose it's sleeper status at some point.

I believe the VX2 originally listed for 2,400.
