Don't know where the price on this one will go. It looks used, but not abused. True, it has the original adjustable bridge, but I consider that to be a plus over somebody's DIY replacement bridge, which afflicts a lot of `60s J45s. If I were going to buy a beater J45 without playing it first (which I'd never do), I'd probably look at this one first.
