Monaco III Streetprice

[Montelovesco]

Hi - does somebody happen to know the actual price for a new Monaco III, bigsby, chrome hardware, natural finish?

Thanx!

Not sure if it helps, but I paid $1950.00 for a red one three years ago.

I remember when I first got it, for a carved spruce top guitar, I was a little underwhelmed with the acoustic volume, maybe I'm losing my marbles, but it seems to sound way louder recently.

Thank you - there were one on ebay Germany yesterday. Went away for 1276 Euro - a bit too much for my budget in the moment. A pity, she was a real beauty.

$1895?

Or is that the one you were talking about? Is 1276 Euro = $1895 at this point? It's been a while since I traveled.

Yep. Should that model ever come around again I guess I wont hesitate...

For NEW, as specified, $1895 is probably a pretty good price. I have seen used ones in the more common red sell in the $1250 range.

IMO, the natural finish would be cooler.
