If my math is right, the ask is around $8,000 US on this. I wonder what the magic number is that will force another look at the viabilty of this instrument in the current market? Or, perhaps a better strategy is realize the esteemed Mr. Hall's worst nightmare: We pitch in and buy Paul McCartney that '68 left handed 4005-6 at Chicago Music Exchange and he puts it on his next album cover. :D

I think the likelihood of that happening and the company making more 4005's is about the same.

Not to abscond with the thread, but I 'd rather see a RoMo 1999, like the Japanese market enjoyed. Like the lyric of that Prince tune...'I wanna party with a nineteen ninety-nine'.
