I believe pricing other than in broad terms is a "No No" here... but

I don't see that "Suggested Retail" very different from a somewhat comparable guitar from another manufacturer - In fact I find the PRS stuff a better value when you look at the end product. Go look at "suggested Retail" on a Gibson 1959 reissue, or a flame top Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster ( I have owned both, so I'm familiar with their pricing).

I think you might find a better answer over on the Vintage Rocker Forums where we could discuss price directly. But I think you'd be better have a specific guitar to compare against the '58 ;)

Cool, I'm trying to stay "within the spirit" of the rule - while helping the guy out. ;)
