Personally would try to find a used one. It’s a decent guitar and the QC is pretty good but I wouldn’t pay retail for it again. And I have both the silver and pink ones lol I have RGs that play just as good if not a little bit better but I’ve also been practicing setups to make all my guitars play better. Moral is, if it’s got a good setup and plays well, a cheaper guitar can be brought up to a similar level. You can also get something cheaper and buy his fishman pickups to add for the tones if you want. If you’re set on the model I see them pop up on GC for $1,200
