I bought that "scratch and dent" one they had on sale a couple of weeks ago
but it was way more screwed up than what they defined as a "scratch and
dent" item. The whole faceplate was bent outwards on the right, a knob was
missing and two of the other knobs were floating around the box. One of
those knobs was actually cracked too. In any event, it wasn't worth the
savings of only $120 out of $799 for something that was that tweaked so I
returned it to exchange for a new one. I'm still waiting on my new one with
the rest of you.
Here's a warning though, if you see a scratch and dent Echoplex show up at
Musician's Friend in the next week or so, don't buy it unless you're
willing
to live with something that may have been dropped or taken apart and poorly
reassembled. They probably had the thing ( serial # 79 or something like
that ) sitting around for a year and figured they could get rid of it since
the other units were so hard to get. It's not worth $679 though. Not in
that
condition.
