Mike,
The Teins were quoted at $2600 here, plus were an 8-10 week wait. Also, Just Jap stock a heap of spare parts for the G4s so if anything ever breaks I'll be able to fix them pretty quickly.

Ooooohh so many to choose from!
How about "Hey Joe" by Hendrix. I love the emotion in it! Or maybe Joe Satriani's "Summer Song" (although that doesn't really count cause the whole song is a solo!).
