I don't think you'll see cheaper anytime soon - got mine for $291 (pre-tax) in a similar deal, but 4 years ago and before inflation. No regrets, its a great guitar.

Some things that helped mine that I'd recommend to other people and you've got a truly great guitar:

1) "Hammer trick" to tighten up vibrato bar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r228wRpTWI0
2) Stewmac 1 degree neck shim (You may want less, I like the action as low as I can get away with)
3) Check the bridge's string slots and the tree for any metal burrs and file them down (I broke 4 high-E strings due to burs on my bridge AND string tree). I ended up putting on a Graph-Tec string tree for peace of mind
4) Clean the fretboard with Dunlop Lemon-oil. Its got some kind of gray wax on to protect it.
5) Raise the pickups close to the strings as Leo intended. Flat-wounds sound great.

I also "upgraded" with some witch-hat knobs and a gold anodized pickguard from Musiclily, but inexpensive and mostly cosmetic. I put on some Graphtec saddles I got on clearance but I don't think it buys you a lot.
Maybe buy the Jazzmaster. If bitcoin falls in price, you'll appreciate having the Jazzmaster. If bitcoin goes up in price, you'll appreciate having the Jazzmaster to play the blues.
Thank you for the sell signal.

I think I have seen the green light me for 329 as a lowest but I have too many surf green guitars (2).

I am debating between buying this or just buying $315 in Bitcoin, but I think I will do the latter

Bitcoin is pretty high right now. Do people think it's going to keep climbing? I haven't been following it closely. I think if it's around 70k. If it drops back down, you might wish you had the jazzmaster....
