Not all that many of these about. Mislabelled as an EBD550, so if you're looking for one of these it may have slipped past. (But be cautious if there are cracks around the lower horn...)

20 hours to run, 4 bids, at £100 - which IMO would be cheap for it.

Now at £102 with less than three hours, certainly heading towards mad bargain territory. Won't be bidding because I've got one! Very odd bass in every way but definitely a keeper.

Curious advert - apparently this one's a "walnut" finish. That'll be those metallic grey plastic walnuts, I suppose.

Those cracks put me right off. I bought one of these a few years ago, in goldfish orange. Sadly when it arrived the body had snapped clean in half. 😣

Exactly this. I bought one, and it lost its lower horn in transit.

I'd hold out for an original wooden one (an Affirma, IIRC), but they are not easy to find and not really within my price range.

Affirmas are like rocking-horse poo, they were never a mass- produced model as far as I know. I missed one that went for about 90 quid, ages ago.
