Yep. When I moved here I sold my three Gibsons, my Guild, and assorted other guitars, but I kept the Legend. (I wanted to travel light so I only brought what would fit in my car.)
The nice thing about the Cargo is that it has a 1-3/4 nut and even though the scale is short, the wider nut makes playing pretty comfortable (much better for me than an Ovation 1-11/16 regular scale length) I have cinderblock hands.
775 is as good as you will find... Jump on it. They are Just plain hard to find anyway and the price has shot up this year.

Thanks Jeff! I have a chance to pick one up for $775 and it seemed like a great deal. Just needed some reassurance before i had to explain another guitar.
Yeah, the Lowden is another recent purchase. It's a S10C -- beat to shit with player wear and has a cracked top (shipping from Minnesota damage) but still has a great tone! Only thing i wrestle with is the size -- the body is a lot deeper and bigger than i am used to dealing with and the neck profile is a bit chuncky for my small hands. But still -- great tone.
