| Trickg,
Around here (Houston, TX), the new Bachs sell for approximately $1700...on sale!!! And depending on the model, they just go up from there!! That's just too painful, and one of the primary reasons I started promoting the ZeuS instruments. They really are great instruments at great prices!
The Olympus does have a different "blow" than the Guarnerius, as it should! Feels much closer to my Callet Jazz. But I really like the unique "sound" that I am getting with the Olympus...must be that brushed copper bell!
If you get the chance, definitely try out the Olympus - I think that you will be quite impressed.
Blessings,
