It's worth the money if you're rich! It's a phenomenal guitar,
but such a collector piece that I couldn't play it without worrying.
Most owners of that guitar are Businessmen, who put it in their giant gunsafe, hoping it'll be a better investment than a dot.com.
I'd still kill to own it, though!

Yeah, imagine playing that guitar, which lists for over $7000,
at a club! First, a kid throws an ice cube at the top, causing
$500 worth of damage....next, your bassist wheels around and
takes a chip outta your headstock! I've have a friggin stroke
onstage, and the show would be over at that very moment! LOL

I doubt i will ever buy a guitar that is more expensive than my LP standard. I feel too uncomfortable with an expensive guitar while playing because i am too worried about the guitar itslef and not my playing.

For that price, i would rather get a few cheaper guitars than one rediculously expensive guitar that i would be afraid to breathe next to.

While, as a hobbyist, that is more than I'd spend on a guitar there are many instruments out there where $4k will just get you something decent and you have to go a lot higher if you want something of "professional" quality.

Well I don't totaly agree with the fact that such a guitar is not made for players but for yuppies who want to have it hung to the wall.
Some people like to drive nice cars and they drive on the road, not only in their garage lane ! And you can have an accident with a Ferrari as well as with a crappy jap'car !
So if I have huge priced PRS , I will take it to the club sets even if I might damage it !
The damage risk is the same on a low cost or an expensive guitar , only the sadness is different !

I just had a look at it and it has been re-listed with a cheaper BIN of $3845, give it another week and it may become cheaper. The prices of PRS's recently have been going up and most of these guitars are reaching our fair shores (UK) because of the weak dollar. However I think what some people have said about taking this out and gigging with it is correct. I have some guitars that will never see the light/evening at some places and that includes two of my PRS's.
Good luck if you get it!!

my point exactly. The price-tag on repairing the problem or replacing the guitar is also different.

Sure it is, to the guy that purchases it. For someone still getting over putting a ding in a Squire Strat, probably not.
I have a couple $2000+ guitars and a couple $4000+ guitars and they all get played out from time to time. They have little scratches and dings on them, but come on it's only wood. Guitar players play guitars and to play them is to put your mark on them.
Not everyone that owes guitars are guitar players though and as already pointed out, some guys buy pretty things so they can make a few bucks over time and occasionally rub their wood.
Don't be a wood rubber, play your guitars!
