This 2565 GBP converts to $4701. Frankly, given that shipping it here - or carrying it back - presents costs (don't forget customs) and complications, I think you'd be better off consider the one that Jim Holler has for sale at $5000. I am not pushing his; just making an observation. A 10% customs tax adds $470 all by itself. Remember, most of the resales in the past two years have been in the $4400 to $5000 range - tending toward the middle of that range. Only one guitar has been clearly documented as selling for more, and nobody has bought one for less in the past couple of years (that I know of). If you want one, I'd say $4700 to $5000 is the best you will see and holding out for the lower price might result in no guitar at all. There are only 61 of them out there, and probably only 20% of those are likely to change hands.

Just my 2 cents.
