i thought 900 might be a bit more reasonable, but then again JEMS are just going up and up now.

Not worth it, signatured guitars are a waste money unless you have a club where you can hang your guitar and say hey Mr vai autographed this for me Just my opinion.

Yes it is worth it...!!! Has it got the case?

It's mint -the signature is irrelevant- and it's an original 777.

It's not cheap, but it's not unreasonably expensive. It's freaking MINT for cying out loud...

I suppose you've got a point lol

Also it does have the original case, and he's throwing a original catalogue also which is apparently worth 50 to 60 quid

It's worth it. Of course it is!

EDIT: It's not mint! There's wear to the board and to the hardware.

It's really just a question of how much the signature is worth to YOU.

If i sold my BFP (with Vai's Signature) i wouldn't charge more for it becuase of the sig...it's just a little added bonus, IMO.

will it be easy to remove the signature off the guitar without leaving any minor damage?. Too be honest the Vai signature means nothing to me, even tho i worship him, its just writing on a guitar, especially a lovely 777DY is not the best thing to do.

You are paying extra bucks for the signature and not the guitar.....

With a Vai signature or anyone, it is worth less to me. I hate signatures!!! Not only that, they are a dime a dozen!
