If you get the chance to try out a delux I don,t think you would be disapointed they are nice guitars.

Will do. Around twice a year I get "the bug", so I set an afternoon aside to hit up the Hollywood GC and try everything on the wall...and some they have to pull from the back, (CS and relics), and compare everything.

I usually end up thinking some of the Squires hold up fairly well to the CS models..sure the CS are way superior..but I don't see them being worth thousands more. However, they will hold value, and can increase in value potentially.. my budget usually involves me building something out of parts anyhow but if I had the money to burn I am sure a CS or two would be hanging on the wall...

The last strat I built I think plays as good as my CS guitars except for my CS Clpaton LTD. Keep an eye out Ive come across some good deals on CS guitars. You just have to be careful.

Ahhhh poor kong... the endless Gear Acquisition Syndrome.

I'm sure poor BoK is going "But you just built one, that everyone liked! why do you need another one?!?!" (Ok, history shows that BoK isn't the kinda wife to say those things, I'll admit).

Mate, I know the feeling, there's always something else out there to have...

I noticed a seller on ebay..he does have a good rating..however he seems to have a stock pile of "CS" bodies and parts. The pictures are posted with the COA...but every auction is stated that the COA will not come with the item..kind of shaky I would think.

I mean would you buy a rare car if the ad said you can only see a picture of the title but it does not come with the car?

I wouldn,t buy one.

Neither would I..but it seems..some are. And, rating this guy positive. I would imagine it is only a matter of time before this dude is busted. It's actually a clever scam...or "selling point" depending on how you view it, but I don't buy anything that is listed with documentation unless the original documentation is included in the sale.
