heya..
Met an american who had a DX1 Martin guitar which he bought for $500 usd.
Exact same guitar costs $1262 here (and that's discounted from a cheaper store)
aussie guitar shops are such a rip off.. is there any way to avoid them?
a few years back i looked into getting a guitar from OS.. think postage was about $200?!
let us know if you have any experiences.
