Moustache Guitars

With all the problems with manufacturing that guitar companies seem to be going through... (I'm including all of them here) I'm inclined to think serious players are going to move away from factory manufactured Sel Macs and go higher end with hand made guitars. Who agrees with this? And who has any experience with Moustache Guitars? They look interesting but I could find no price information or reviews. Seems to me the $1000-$2000 Sel Mac guitar market is in the tank with the rest of the US economy, which is worse every day. (700 small music stores nationwide went our of business and closed their doors right after Christmas, some of these stores had been around decades.) Oddly there seems to be much more interest in the $2500-$3500 range. So does anyone know about these Moustache Guitars?

    Schoenberg Guitars in Tiburon, CA usually has one or so. I played one there once and it was pretty nice but that was a couple years ago and I can't recall clearly what I liked or disliked about it. I remember it enough to recall it not being a bad guitar though. Whatever that's worth.

    The link to his site:

    http://www.moustache-guitars.nl

    The site is in English.

    Pls note the prices on the site include Dutch (skyhigh) tax.

    I've played both the grand and petite bouche, and they played very well.
    Well made, with a lot of attention to detail.

    Listen to recent recordings of Lollo Meier, as he uses a Moustache on them. (e.g his CD "Rosas'').
    I've played Lollo's personal guitar, hence know the recordings represent the actual sound of the guitar.
