    It sure looks like a first class, top quality and really fine musical instrument. This could be the axe I've been squirreling away my loot for. I'm sure as well as being a functional and excellent sounding player, it will hold it's value as well. They really do look like killer guitars and it is a smart move by Jackson. The maple neck looks tough, but on second thought, one of each would be the way to go!

      That much?

      Phil Collen's model has many more features and they're on special now for $1850, and only lists for $2300. There's no arched top, no clear finishes, and no crazy electronics.

      Why so much?

        PC1s don't list for 2300. List on a PC1 is $3199.

        $2399 is the MAP (minimum advertised price), and discounted price will be 'something' below that.

          Thats a good point; at any rate it sure would be nice to have them building guitars for you and not paying for them.

            I see what you mean.

            So does Sam Ash or musicians friend get a run, or do you just have to wait so that one will show up at your local dealer?

              Well as far as I know, FMIC doesn't just send stuff out randomly, so the dealer would have to order it. I assume something like GC or Sam Ash would have a central ordering facility, so maybe product would arrive there 'randomly', but I doubt it...

                        i just got a call from a sam ash who'd just gotten off the line with fender, and the jackson is listing at $2799, and they say minimum advertised price is going to be $1999, and the final selling price is going to be probably closer to the list than for the advertised; 20% down, and you 'might' get it by may.

                        don't pay a penny over 1100 for anything with a rosewood fretboard.

                        i can only imagine that your timeframe over there is going to be pushed back from the factory. your best bet might be ebay in november.

                        wait a minute...

                          A few might have already shipped to a few dealers ...
