Heads up - Heritage Academy on eBay!

In my quest for an affordable high quality 15” semi-hollow, I just came across this on eBay. You don’t see these very often as they discontinued the model some years back. I believe they are very highly regarded. Serial number would seem to indicate it was built in the early 90's. There’s no bidding – it’s just ‘Buy It Now’ for $1744 shipped. I’m sorely tempted, but I’d have to sell all 3 of my other electrics to finance it. Furthermore, I’ve never even seen one and there’s a no return stipulation. Looks like it has Graphtec saddles and a coil-cut switch added by the way. I don't like the strap button or where it's situated, but that's not a big deal. I don’t know if that’s a good price, but if it is someone ought to snap it up quickly before I change my mind! heritage academy guitar | eBay

You can get an equivalent eastman for $1k

Yeah, I know. GAS attack has subsided (for the moment) anyway!

that prospect has been on ebay for a couple months at that same price. It's priced about $250 too much IMO

Thanks - that's sort of what I thought. If it was local, I'd definitely check it out in person - I've never played one - but shipped from across the country with, "No returns accepted," I'm surely going to pass on it.
