I guess they are trying to make a profit??? How long is the wait time for a Pro?

Nice find. Since they are an "authorized dealer" then perhaps there is a PT Barnum factor at hand here?

Or maybe, similar to a Fender "Relic", these guitars are worth more slightly used? ;)

Maybe someone duped a clueless salesman on a bad day and tricked him into buying/trading it for that much.

I've dealt with Gary before and found him to be a straight-up guy. All I can add is that his web-site shows the MSRP at $2,200.

I can't see the eBay listing where I'm at right now, but Suhr did set the MAP price on these at $1,540.

Your right though most sell at 1540-ish
Indoor Storm $1540 Same as Boutique guitar exchange

So all pretty close.
Ebay is funny that way eh?
John are you buying one? Do you still have that Strat I sold you? The home built....I think it was the ice blue mettalic one.

I sold that one to Jim Fogarty who still has it.After owning several more boutique strats,I've gone back to building my own Warmoth equipted with V60lps and the SSC BP.

You know that name sounds so familiar I wonder if Jim also bought something from me or I from him?

heheh we think alike. I am in the same boat as you & back to home builts. Still using Fralin underwinds though but did love the V60LP's in the Suhr I had.
I have been tempted pretty good by the new SSl Lentz's though ;)
