Some people say the quality of the super 400 went down.
Others say , it still sounds great and is a poor man's TH&C, with same body, Bell and Neck measures, norton springs and pads...

what would you say? Worth paying 700U$ for one in need of an overhaul?

I'm no expert, but $1700 seems a bit high for a Super 400. I've seen Big B's in good shape selling in that range, and TH&Cs in need of an overhaul for not much more.

And wasn't the Super 400 introduced in '59?
