Yep, seen those. 😄 Quite cool but the price is insane…
Yup, I had folks reach out to them from the YJM Facebook Page to see if I could get enough folks wanting me to do a review/comparison. Music Zoo, basically said they won't loan me one, but if I wanted to buy one they would sell it to me for the low low price of $5,500 :ROFLMAO: . Needless to say, I never replied.

That’s a nice discount anyways! 👍
 
I know Yngwie is closer to being mainstream than a lot of classic Heavy Metal artists are, but does he really have enough fans that can afford to pay over $6k for a guitar?
 
Iif I were rich I'd rather buy a play loud replica for 10k than one of those relics for 6k
Hey, IF you can find an official play loud replica for $10k, please let me know immediately. They haven't sold for that little in well over a decade now.

I think once you get into that space, you'll run into more collectors than players. My YJM Custom Shop gets played more than any of my other YJM's. It's actually on a guitar stand as we speak and has been there for months.

If I were able to snag a Custom Shop Play Loud Replica, I would do the same. I'd be willing to bet a majority of folks that own them likely don't even play guitar.
