Our Bass Player (The late Bill Hunt) has the Midi/Nylon strung version which I have "on Loan" at the moment I rather like it (or he would have had it back by now :-).

Plays well through an acoustic amp (AER) or DIed into mixing deck, MIDI tracks well, it also records well.

Not sure on current price as this was was a secondhand shop buy about £200 ukp (Trashcan Formers) - which I would feel was a bargain for this one.

They also make a nice mandolin. If you want to have a look/play I'll take it along one wednesday with the AER.
