Hi,
I applied for a CS guitar and I would like to know how much does custom shop guitars go for aprox. ? Or what is a reasonable price? I know, it depends on the spec. but if I order rather basic things how much would that cost? I'll list the spec. for the guitar I applied for:

That's basically it. My dealer gave a quote of around $4881 for almost the same spec. but with pearloid binding and EMG pickups which is to me way expensive (tax is not included), it would be like $5759 incl. tax (I'm in Europe currently therefore they got 18% value added tax here) I think that's alot even for a custom Jackson. What do you guys think?
