Look at this 4003. There is a fairly good-sized scrape on the face of the upper horn, and it looks like there are other scratches on the horn as well, plus some on the back. It is fairly new (he lists as a 2000 & 2002?), yet has more careless damage than I have ever seen on a high-end guitar of this age. Opening bid of $999 plus $40 shipping---heck, you can buy brand new for less than that!

Some of these sellers and bidders need to be placed in touch with Washington Music in Wheaton, MD. They sell brand new 4003's for $995. Even Classic Axe in Manassas, VA isn't far off that price.
