Location: Denver, PA USA | Hello all,
I bought a 5778-4ES Elite and like it. I also have a 1777LX Legend and like it too. I need to sell one of them. What do you all think? I am having a hard time deciding. Unfotunately I need to sell the one. I think the Legend is worth more. Any advice?

Someone from the adoption agency needs to be called in. I can't believe I'm even asking this, but is the Legenmd by any chance BLACK ???

Maybe I will sell my bass and amp instead. Maybe that would be enough. Hmmm. I haven't played that in a long while. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I think you should give me the Legend and let me keep it until either:
1. I come into a lot of money from an unexpected source like my fortune cookie said would happen; or
2. You decide you can't live without it and come and take it back (don't worry, none of my guns are loaded and my dog sounds a lot worse than she is).
Noah has a red Custom Legend he adopted that needs a good home like mine already, but I can't seem to justify it. |

Amp is a Ashdown Electric Blue 15-180 combo.

Bill, describe the bass and amp. I thought The Council voted and he was tagged as HWMUA (Who-moo-uh or How-mwah)? Were you the dissenting vote? |

Cc I hadn't thought about prices yet. It sells for $349 new at American Musical Supply. That is where I bought it. I would think $300 would be fair. It is like new. Been sitting in church for the past 6 months. Used it 2X. I have the origanal box. What do you think? |

Location: Denver, PA USA | Well I decided. Actually a while ago. I need to sell the Legend. I posted it in the for sale area. I just love everything about the Elite. Now to save up for a Elite LX. But I have to replenish the savings acount some before I do that. |
