I know Arthur has one of these... anyone know how these compare to the regular slim acoustics?

The 2229 Super Professional has the 3 piece Mat neck, just like my EB2D bass... and is nearly identical to similar Univox and Aria ones out there...

This seller does a lot of Electra stuff, and is always on the high side, but this is a bit carried away...

if anybody has to have one, I have one I'd let go for 1/3 the price :)

These are far superior to the earlier slimlines and are very nicely built guitars. As for price wise this one has been listed for some time at this price and will be for much longer. I have a near mint one that I paid far less for.

That makes 2 of us then, McB. I did the same months ago.

This one is going to reach Monark status soon (Westone forum joke) ...
