 The 116B is a good performer, but it probably has the least appealing cabinet of all the 16B/116Bs. I'm not sure that I would have paid as much as that for one myself, very likely not, it wasn't a rip off but it wasn't a bargain either. However you wanted one that played and I am somewhat indifferent to that, I don't really trust anyone else's work unless I can see what was done or know who did it, so I'm unwilling to pay extra for that.
Regards
Arran
