It will be available next month in 2 versions. NOS $3,999.00 and Relic Black over 3 color sunburst. $4,799.99. Both will be custom shop models. Still too high priced for me although if they made a non custom shop version I'd get one.

I guess there are no Pink Floyd fans here except me.

I am a huge Floyd fan, I also think that both models are severely overpriced though.
I am also pretty sure this thread exists somewhere else....?

I'm a huge Gilmour fan too but I don't see a lefty option. Lefties lose out again!

It's cool that Gilmour has a sig model, on both relic and non-relic versions, but both of those prices are Stratospherically high for a guitar that Gilmour himself stated there wasn't anything all that special/out of the ordinary about, though Fender had done a nice job reproducing it.
That being said, I'm sure that in many cases, the actual selling price will be lower than list, which Floyd fans desiring one should be able to find affordable.

David's my favorite guitar player. It makes me sick that his sig gitar is this pricy. Around $1000ish would've made more sense for the NOS model.
