A customer of mine bought a 2030 when he was in the US about three years ago, and the guy selling it was asking $400. He wasnt really that interested, but just as a joke, he offer to pay $300 with case included. The guy just asked: cash?
So he bought it just because he felt like he was doing the deal of his life.
Anyway, after coming back home, here in Brazil, he just didnt care for the tone and tried to sell it and make a profit. But this model is pretty much unheard of here, so he just couldnt sell it for the price he wanted and wasnt too keen on making it even.
So he brought it to me and we ended up replacing the pickups for some custom wound high output pickups from a local brand. He managed to sell the original pickups for the price he paid for the whole bass and case.
BTW, after the pickup change, it became his main axe.
