In fact , prices is relativ to the frequency of usage you gonna have with this , i just finsihsed a whle album using 70 % of the time Sonicouture ELectro acoustics , so yep prices isn't cheap but if it serves the goal in a solid manner , i invest
for a regular production type of work , i would say yep , it's expensive (if you do regular rock , country , ballad, even pop ect ....) if yo don any genre that you have room to "exotic moves" , it's a pure joy
