Yeah that's a lot, but one has to admit that in general, guitar-wise, the best place to buy an instrument remains the US - choice, price, availability... Why pay 2000 - 2500 € for a new (ahem, signature) Jazzmaster when for $ US equivalent you can probably buy a decent vintage one. Is still a huge amount of cash to spend on an instrument, but given the choice I know what I'd prefer.
