I too have a 95 Mottey SP, ebony with the multi-colored butterfly at the bottom and it plays oh so well. Very stiff, hard hit. I think my friend paid $225 for it new out of a pool hall in eastern ohio wayyy back when and then gave it to me for a b-day gift a couple years later. Wish you well finding one for under 500, cheapest I saw was $450 and shipping a couple years ago. There are not many around. If you do get one, you will love it.
