Yeah, not a chance. IMO, reliced (sp?) guitars should be automatically discounted. Sheesh.

1) there are a lot of guitar players who are Yngwie Malmsteen fans
2) most of them would love to have this guitar
3) a few of them are rich enough that $12,500 is considered disposable


Fender will have no trouble selling these.

with a 1 1/2 review rating added to your list, that's why they're probably in the 'clearance' section ...though the price is still, umm, ridiculous?
