it was a JOKE!! See, guitars are mostly made of wood. Trees are also made of wood. So I took the traditional fatherly penny pincher phrase "you think money grows on trees?", which is false being money does not grow on trees, and reworked it so that instead of money, it was "the stuff they make guitars with", which actually does grow on trees. Ya see what I did there?

Coldmystery got it and I thank him.

that being said, me making a tele by hand in my garage and Fender making a tele in their factory are two completely different economic models. And that says nothing to the fact that a couple months ago, their economic model priced a guitar for $700 and now that same guitar costs $1000. That's almost 43%.

Does it suddenly take longer to make the same guitar? Does it now take more work?

These are great guitars. I have two. They were a special run. FSR. The gloss polyurethane finish is not as durable as one might expect. The playability is great.
