Very much the same from what i see on the web, but US prices tend to be the same or less in dollars than they are here in pounds.

AS an example -You can get an ESP EC300 for $450 (about £300)but they're generally £500+ here!!.

Also US gets Faded SGs for $500, we don't get 'em at all and you can bet they'd be ,say, £600 if we did.

IT's even worse in Scandanavia if i recall.
