You and me both Bro! The price of some of these "Custom, new/vintage, tribute, repo" guitars with "artificial wear and tear" blows me away! Kinda silly in fact! "Instant collector's items" as it were....Originally Posted by oldguy
I know this has been brought up before.....but it never ceases to amaze me!
I love Tele's....... but some folks seem to have more money than sense...or am I missing something here (besides 5 or 10 grand to spend to be a gear corksniffer)?
Was it Barnum who said "There's one born every minute..." ?!?

BTW, I think it's sad that kids these days won't find "used" Fender guitars at realistic prices hanging in music stores and pawnshops like 30 or 40 years ago. Nowadays, people who don't even play grab them up for "$peculation" purposes....Luckily, the Squires are decent alternatives if not as "cool".....(Altho' even the Squires from the 80's are "collector guitars" now: )
