    Hello,
    Can you please tell the price of they Amati and the Blueline guitars? Are they all 16″ or do make a 17″? Also how long is the order time and how much of a down payment do you require? I’m interested in the duo-pickup model. I assume the floating pickup is a humbucker? I sure would like to try out one of these instruments, but I live in Asheville, NC. Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Joe
