I didnt realizes Suhrs were that expensive. Im sure they are incredible guitars, but after checking out the site..$200 upcharge for black hardware and $700 for body and neck binding. I was thinking about getting one eventually, but now I think I'll just sit back and drool over yours.

They're definately expensive! But in the end I paid roughly what a brand new J-Custom would cost.
Mark, thanks mate I ordered the guitar through Matt. MUCH cheaper than going through a UK dealer. Thanks to Matt, it ended up costing around £1600-£1700 including shipping and taxes. If I'd gone to Sounds Great, I think we'd be looking at least £2500!
I figured it would be cheaper to go through a dealer than directy through Suhr, still some of those upgrades are pretty steep. Matt had a real nice red one awhile ago, maybe when Im back to work.......

DCs are for Les Paul guys who dont like Les Pauls, so you may like it. I missed the separate controls, and dont care for 24 fret necks, although that really isnt a deal breaker.
Was it this red one Cid? First time I saw Steve's guitar, I must admit I really wanted one myself! Looking at it again, I kind of wish I'd actually ticked the Carve Top box when ordering mine.
Thanks mate
The teal quilt I got from the bay. It wasn't exactly cheap, but it was in great condition and just was so sweet to play. Plus I'd probably have to pay double for the specs. The Noise free single coil system is around $300-$400 on it's own.
On the strength of how much I rated the guitar, I custom ordered the charcoal one from Matt.
Yeh there are a couple of UK dealers that spring to mind. But tbh, it's MUCH cheaper going through Matt, probably a grand cheaper!!
