Because it is an over priced replica...

Now the real Frankenstrat would bring far more than $25k.

I bought the complete CD set a few years ago. I think evereything we know of that he recorded is on that CD. There are only 2 or 3 sessions ever recorded. I found mine at Best Buy ... so they're pretty easy to find.

If you pick that box set up, and are unfamiliar with 20's and 30's blues- listen to it for what it is. Don't expect it to be like "the blues" like Clapton.

Yeah ... it's pretty raw ... I guy with an old acoustic ... probably bad strings ... recording straight into one of the early recorders. For me, it is more like a history lesson. I can't listen to much of it in one sitting ... due to the quality ... respectful of the man/music though.
