Music gurus, I need your help on a possible purchase

I am a huge Muse fan....ten fold over any other band. I am obsessed. I have seen them in concert and have a bunch of their stuff, but I saw this on eBay today and was wondering if this is anywhere near market price, which I am absent-minded of. I have no clue what a price tag for this type of item is. I would really appreciate thoughts and opinions. First time poster on the Music board.

You're paying for the autographs not the guitar, so that value is up to you. Due to the autographs, this guitar would never be played.

This guitar is suitable for a beginner because it costs under $200. It's most probably made in China.
For the money, it might be a darn good guitar, however, when buying a cheap guitar, it is a bad idea to buy it over the internet without playing it yourself first.
So, now that you know that you are buying a guitar that costs about $170, you can see just how much the autographs are costing you, which is a lot.

You're paying well over 1k for autographs. Is it worth it to you?
I think you could likely find signed pictures for much cheaper.

True. I do not make purchases like this, but understand the value of the guitar over the signed posters or whatever....plus, there is a coolness factor to it.

Yeah, only you can answer this question.
I could give two shits about Muse. That is not a knock, thats just me. Just saying how subjective this is. $1500 is a lot. I would not pay $1500 for a Pearl Jam signed guitar. And I LOVE THEM!
Really research what their signatures are going for, because that is what you are buying.

I bought one of Gary Moore's Guilds a few years ago off ebay. I got into a bidding war with some guy and ended up paying $1,500.00...which I thought was a great deal (the guitar was worth about $400.00).
When buying an autographed guitar, there really is no "fair market value". It's worth what someone is willing to pay. Pretty simplistic but true.

After learning that this guitar sells for well under $200 with some additional goodies that you won't be getting with your purchase, what additional info do you need?
