I have been a huge fan of Vai since I was a kid, and I have zero interest in something like this, especially at the price range. Is it just me? Maybe 20 years ago I would have freaked about this, and still would not have been able to have afforded it, but now.....I just do not have the desire/drive.

I am certain there is a decent sized group of people that will be buying it.

$399 package up to $24,999.

AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA $400 you are out of your goddamn mind.

If James Hetfield can release his "Messengers" book that does the exact same thing for $80, there's no reason in the world Vai's book should be priced literally fives times higher. James' book was about 400 pages, this one looks to be around 1000. Given that, I'd expect it to be more expensive, but nowhere close to five times more.

Agree; book looks nice for sure, but price is way up there; especially when you compare to similar high end editions, like Taschen for instance.
And ships from the UK = added taxes to expect I guess?

This, Hetfield book is great and the price is fair, it contains lots of beautiful photos and interesting information about his guitars. The same can be said about Jimmy Page book that I got as Xmas gift for myself.

400€ for Steve’s book is totally not worth for me. Same can be said about Kirk Hammet book, they seem money grab.
 
The most important guitars from Vai would be the Green Meanie and the original Universe, the rest are all just sort of "guitars".
