Good price for a used Stomp XL?

I saw one for sale near me for $500 (retail new for $750). I thought this was a screaming deal but now I see a couple others near me for $425 and $450 also.

What is a fair price for a used Stomp XL these days? Is it still a good deal or is there a newer product that is causing people to sell these suddenly? I know about the Stadium but that's way out of my price range.

Learning some licks the "old way"

I found this video really helpful. The guy goes through it pretty quickly but he covers so many different examples it's mind blowing to me as a beginner. I've always been a better rhythm player than lead player but I feel like this helped me quite a bit.

I'm not affiliated in any way with this guy and I have not purchased his app. I just found the video educational:

Ok, I admit a bit click-baity title. I've contributed to my 401k since I started working, but I did not create a Roth IRA until a few years ago. As a result my 401k has a healthy balance but Im worried my low Roth amount could be problematic if I wanted to retire early.

401k: $850k

Roth IRA: $55k (combined my wife and mine).

I currently max my 401k but only put $500 per month in IRAs. Does it make sense to flip this logic and max my IRAs even if it takes my 401k contribution down to just employer match levels?
