And why not buy from the builder? I'd assume he can still make them and they will have a consistent good quality...
Couple of reasons
a) laying down £—-x and then waiting 2 or 3 + years for anything to materialise. Compared with finding one you like and taking it home immediately.
b) what you finally get, might not be what you expected, every guitar is unique, some call you in, some don’t. You’ll never know until you’ve got it in your hands. It’s a risk
c) it’s more than £7k for a base model. I rarely buy anything like this new, I like the value in pre-owned. You generally pay closer to the intrinsic value. The first customer who likes shiny new stuff will have payed for most if not all of the depreciation.
I doubt a terry will have any depreciation to be honest, but still I don’t want to go through the hassle of A and B
