The price is ridiculous!
He makes no case for it being a superior guitar... It clearly is made with inexpensive materials and manufactured by a machine.
Even the neck is manufactured by Warmoth. Could they have not supplied stainless steel frets at this price point?
I applaud his ingenuity and it is aesthetically pleasing (to a degree)... but I doubt it will sell well until the price drops significantly.
When Gibson/PRS/Fender offer a guitar at this price it is because of the use of scarce/valuable tone woods and hand made craftsmanship.
Nothing about this guitar justifies its price tag...
The free market will decide this one for sure. 13-Nov-12 12:40 PM Post a comment |
