GUITARE MINIATURE U2 BONO GRETSCH IRISH FALCON FREEDOM | eBay
I got one of those, I might be willing to sell.
Good luck finding the real deal. It's near damn impossible.

If money's not an object (think in the 5Gs range last I heard), contact Gretsch. You can have one made. If not exactly like it, pretty darn close.
No, really, you can.
I've looked into that option a bit through a shop that does HUGE Gretsch volumes. I can't get an answer whether or not the fretboard would have the inlaid signature. I've got a dealer scouring the east coast to no avail so far. As cool as a custom would be, unless it's identical to the real run of IF's, I wouldn't want it.
I'm considering looking into the Gretsch-ified Tele from the thread about Bono's new guitar, but I really prefer the Falcon.

I'm personally drooling over the Tele. The Falcon, on me, would look like most hollow-bodies of that size: ridiculously huge. The Tele is a nicer size for lightweights like me

The Falcon seems just right for me...
But my dreams seem to be just that...

Saw u2 in Nashville just a few days ago (July 2nd) and at the end, Bono brought a blind guy up from the front row (he was holding a sign that said "BLind GUitar Player") to let him play a song (he chose to play "All i want is you" .) He was SUPER nervous... anyways... Bono had his tech go grab his personal Falcon and he let the guy play that guitar... Bono Sang a verse or 2 and a chorus.. Larry Mullen came in about half way as did Adam Clayton .. (Edge jumped on piano) .. after they played part of that song... Bono took the guitar back from the guy.. and then told him he could have the guitar.!!!!!! holy cow!!!!!!!!!!! Could you imagine!!!!!????? He gave HIS guitar to that guy!!!! https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=186268488095045&oid=5678046685&comments

I saw an Irish Falcon on a site once for around 4,000$ I think. I forget the site.
