How much?
that exact one in the TM link had a price tag of about $1200 if I recall, I took pics of them when I was there but deleted them off sometime back, they also had some of his Bogners in the shop :crazy:

How would you feel if you'd paid $1299 for one of these earlier this year? Also note that he's taken the luthier's name off the listing.

That one is almost worth it for the pickups. I’ve been after a set of Pearly Gates for ages.

I'd feel bloody stupid and at the risk of sounding like a cock I can't imagine why anyone would pay that sort of money for a guitar like those!

Considering the seller, would you trust those to actually be genuine Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates?

Anyone looking at them is going to think they're shit, regardless of how well setup they are...
