What's the best price you have heard of for the EP9?

[Falcon Wing]

Anyone heard of a good deal? I didn't like the looks of it at first...but is has grown on me!
Any recomendations for a source?

I got an ep9 with case for $1200.00. And I absolutely love it.

How does it sound unplugged? Is it shallow like the EP7, or deeper?

Thanks

its construction is the same, sam thickness, neck profile, etc. but i do think in sound, it is an improvement over the EP7. played both just yesterday shopping for a nylon string. it does sound like it has more balls to it.
