It would be wonderful if it stays this low. Let's do what we can as a team to make it happen, 'kay?

...nudge, nudge, wink, wink

I started bidding just for the heck of it - plus I do really like these. I predict I will be a bystander.

Well..... yeah I did just sell one, and yes, I am missing it. As always I have a case of sellers remorse. Seriously, I'm tempted with this but I just can't do it so.... hope your $26 wins. Don't be surprised if at the last second I sweeten the bid to $30 and swipe it out from under you though.

I am slowly becoming convinced that I am really suited to the more basic Electra models. I still like a 3 way switch over the rotary and I think I can live with only a few MPC models. So to bring it back to the thread - The Workingman is a kick butt no frills axe and I happen to really like them. I will hopefully one day procure another.
