Why this price difference: showcase vs just ordering one?

[Steve_Karl]

A black Korina body : http://www.warmoth.com/Showcase/ShowcaseItem.aspx?i=s3462&Body=2&Path=Body
for $345.00 in the showcase, but I could order one for $265.00.
So, in your opinion, why is the one in the showcase more expensive?

Thanks,

Steve

black korina with a black korina top (i know it's a one piece, but still) and top routed should be $320. then i think the extra $25 would be from it being a one piece body. kind of like a quartersawn neck being more than a regular cut one. since some people wil argue that a solid body would improve tone / increase sustain / whatever.

:dontknow: thats my guess

From the price list, $265 + 65 for one piece body = $330, plus that's a sweet piece that could go in unique choice and there you have the difference.

Ahhhh  ...  I get it now!

How does the weight of the one in the showcase ( 4lbs. 13oz. ) compare to the average if you know?
Thanks,
