Price isn't terrible. Little high, but not bad, I bet you could make an offer and get it for less. Beautiful guitar!

Opps, Double Post Above.... Have to admit, probably shouldn't have bought it considering I need to free up cash to do some repairs on other guitars, but sometimes you have to open the door when opportunity knocks.

Thanks all. I am about to embark on remodel of sorts. Going to rout in two AE-1 Pickups in the bridge and middle positions to fatten up the sound and see what (if anything) can be done replace the kahler with a hard tail. I haven't explored yet, but it looks like this model kahler is a flat mount, but haven't done too much research on that yet.
