Marrs Dobro Simulator

I ran on to a used one at a pawn shop today in good condition with a price tag of $200, including case. What is it worth if I wanted to make an offer?

Hey, Fred, it should be worth a good deal more than $200! I bought one new some years ago for around $500 as I recall, and I've got one now I got on ebay. It's a really neat instrument, has it's own tonal signature and makes a great practice Dobro or lap steel because of the low volume. A really cool idea. You may not know that the little resonator inside is actually an empty cat food can... no kidding!
