It used to be that all guitar stores negotiated all prices like used car dealers. Some probably still will negotiate, though it is less common than it used to be.

Armed with as much knowledge as you have, you should be in a good position to negotiate. Find three dealers who have the color/model you want. If there are no local dealers, call up some online dealers on the phone and ask them. Talk to them about pricing. Be respectful and you should get at least some discount beyond 33%. You might even get to 40% off.

That is what I would try next. Hope that helps.
