Good Street Price on a Petrucci model

[Guituser]

What is a good street price on a Petrucci model w/piezo, matching headstock w/ Pearl Redburst?
I just want to make sure I am in the ballpark of getting a good deal before I order, or I will find another dealer, and of course a better price!

New, I'd say $1500-1600 US

I'd think you should get a better price than $1500. My 6-string Pearl Redburst doesn't have the Piezo or matching headstock and it cost me $1079 w/ case as a custom order from Guitar Center in NY. With tax it was about $1175. Does the Piezo and matching headstock add that much?

That seems close, maybe a touch high but if it's already built and ready to take home it will be a touch higher. I paid $1500-1600 for my Redburst Sevenstring with piezo and matching head, but I had to wait for it to be built.

As a dealer I can tell you $1500-1600 is a good price for new. Since it would list at $2275, you are looking at about 30% off list which is about as low as Musicians Friend can go.

Thanks all

I had it ordered today with all options/including case, Pearl redburst $1500 OTD! Now I will go insane for 2-3months while it is being built!

Insane? Yep. I keep saying to all those new to the EBMM, welcome to the addiction! I just can't seem to stop buying them.......

Congrats on the purchase. You will not be dissappointed!

Yeah it does....actually. There's a PRB w/ matching head and piezo at Ash in Huntington for like $1799. The piezo is approx $450 more. Mystic dream adds a bunch too. Full loaded with inlays and MD I've seen new on the rack go for almost $2100 or more.

I picked mine up for $1400, CBP matching head, piezo and that included shipping.
