check out blueridge. i bought mine for 600 four years ago and absolutely love it. beautiful guitar that sounds amazing.
p.s. ricks has been changing and not all for the better. his electric stock has sky rocketed and has really been pushing ibanez. which is fine as far as electrics are concerned, but, last time i was in there his acoustic section was almost all ibanez as well. which sucks cause they are only fair acoustics that are incredible over priced.
