I'm not sure we will find any more of the flamed ebony any time soon, but aside from that, one 'almost exactly like it' would cost US$1820 including molded flight case. (Maybe a bit more, since "instrument grade" maple is individually priced, so cost varies with exactly what piece of wood you personally choose for the top.)

You can spec one out for yourself using our custom quote generator HERE: http://195.7.185.41/price/guitarprice.pl
