Is it just me, or is that a pretty significant "Factory Finish Defect"?

apparently the reserve is $4,000, which is around market value for these things I think. Makes it somewhat less appealing.

After your first dent, you'll stop considering it so "significant"...
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Especially if this is the last of a picked-over batch at a GOOB music store. BTW, is Brook Mays in Dallas still around? I think they used to stock these...

The seller didn't answer my question about where the horn is located, so it could be them. It's not like you'll find a 181 at any old music store, so they're a good bet.
