Had this beauty shipped from Moncton NB last fall, got it from the niece of the original owner, sent her $200 and another $65 for shipping to Winnipeg....plays and sounds fantastic. The pics don't do it justice...they seem kind of washed out...

Lovely!

I have a GB-28 (also a super jumbo) in sunburst - a lot of high-end on that one, sound-wise. If I'd ever bother to play the intro to Pinball Wizard, I bet it would nail that tone.
Does yours have a lot of top-end as well? Seems to be a trait of the Super Jumbos.

Beautiful! And congrats on the successful long distance negotiated sale, I've never attempted that on Kijiji or CL.
There are 2 ED models that I've been on the look out for and this is one of them.
Well done. :D
