Location: Warren,Pa.		I used to have one of those. Beautiful big sound. For $300 I wouldn't stop to think about it...I'd be out the door with it!

Location: NW of Philadelphia		$300 for a mint 1755 w/case sounds good. I got my 1751 Balladeer w/gigbag for $165 off ebay in fair condition. After some work she is a great player and looker. Bought a case later.
