This guy thinks about his guitars like my wife thinks about her shoes....

Here is an idea....Why not think about why you are buying a guitar in the first place.....Are you interested in the way it looks? Are interested in the way it feels? Are you interested in the way it sounds?

Do you like the way your guitar looks when you wear blue jeans with black boots or black jeans with grey boots?

nicely put jay.

Whatever you buy just play it rather than worrying about nonsensical stuff like appearance and durability. Fender have produced a few guitars that have lasted 57 odd years. They made em when no one knew much about making electric guitars. I cant see any reason why their current production wont last that amount of time.

How can you tell if a "road-worn" guitar is in good shape? :shock:

... by all means pick up a Highway One Strat. But see if you can keep it more than a week. Many people feel the tone improves with age - somewhere around halfway through the first month.


A very good suggestion.

But you know the old forum adage: no picture, no guitar.
So I have my doubts about this young man's stories.
