At this discounted price you are getting a brand new guitar at basically exactly where the used market commands for these models, which is to say it's a great price. I only have experience with the American Professional II line (not the Classic) - although I sold mine due to favoring vintage specs, if you are a fan of a fuller C neck profile these guitars are fantastic.

Market is actually very saturated right now. I have a few of these Strats a, pro I, pro 2, deluxe tele.. Resale for like new mint pro Strat 1 or2 (or classic) is between $650-1000, plus shipping, if you are slightly patient. Classic doesn't come w a case.

Teles are a little harder to find, but still easy to get under $1000.

Very true, you're right on, especially after tax is considered. I've purchased two Am Pro IIs (both Telecasters lol) and got each for $900-950 in mint condition and that was a bit ago. So at $1200-1250 before tax these are definitely at the upper end of the used pricing range, but a solid deal if someone is looking to buy brand new

Yep. I do like that mint tele. Smilie

I have enough I keep telling myself. But can't help making an offer now and then and I keep ending up with more. Just got a pro tele deluxe w upgraded pickups and ohsc for $650 (plus shipping). 🤦🏻 ♂️
