SweetWater has updated their prices. It's now $3195.97 for the fixed bridges, $3395.97 for the vibrato tailpiece. (Big pet peeve. Sorry.)

+1 on being severly annoyed by the whole tremolo/vibrato confusion. Vibrato is pitch, tremolo is volume

I think it is too costly, what extra it has for which it's cost is so high. Generally guitars cost 500 $.

Generally guitars have several thousand fewer electronic parts.
A couple of pickups and a knob or two don't cost so much.... the original engineering of the Moog guitar, plus the electronics, plus the pickups which are made by hand here in Asheville NC, all add up to a lot of built-in cost.
And a lot of value for the money, if you value the the abilities that the Moog Guitar provides.

If all you need is a basic axe, there are plenty to be had. But to compare the Moog Guitar to a basic axe on price alone, is to miss the point somewhat...
