Saw a bunch of them at my local Sam Ash yesterday. None marked down. Then again, neither were their two Fishman SA 220s. ;-)

I know they're great guitars... but that badge on the headstock looks pretty tacky to me.

Kramster, was it flush mounted, or just glued on?

That sounds like an opportunity for badge removal and custom inlay to me.....

It's on my "eventual" list, right after my green Chimaera Artisan (not yet ordered) arrives and it gets tired of being played through my repertoire!

Nice one, Kramster.
