You can be lucky or not on Ebay, but for you Autoriot I'd suggest what you'd spend on freight and insurance would be better spent on a trip to Melbourne. What is it, about 3 hours drive? If you know somebody down here and you can overnight, even better. Make a full day of your guitar hunting and check-out Billy Hydes, Allans and Manny's. At least that way you get your mitts on a lot of stuff and you'll generally get good advice at any of those stores. Personally, I'd never buy a guitar without playing it first, particularly if it's not distributed here.
