I just searched that. Wow, pretty good value on the used market. Yeah, been thinking about trying to find one. Appreciate that you have choices on scale length; I'm personally used to the Fender scale.

Have you considered a Hagstrom? Maybe a Deuce or a Viking?

Are you worried about your job? Worried about finding one, yes. Search hasn't been going as well as I'd hoped so far. Ability to pay rent or mortgage? Somewhat... I have some money that was saved in preparation for my recent move but I'm trying not to let them bottom out. Your retirement / 401k? Nope, don't have one. Are you putting off purchases? Yup, but mostly because I need to give more priority to the essentials. Is it altering your income directly from music? Nope - strictly a hobbyist. Are you worried about a prolonged recession? To a certain degree, yes. edit: post count 606
