Buying a guitar that is artificially aged and then paying MORE for it is just cringe...

3,000 as a DISCOUNT is insane. There's nothing about these that's any better than the American models costing half that. And the player series is solid and is half that, about 700-800. And if your willing to replace pickups/tuners and maybe some other stuff, Harley Benton is INSANE quality for the price and has strats, teles, and LPs for 200-500. AND they just launched their own version of light or heavy relic strats and teles and basses. for about 300.

Practically any guitar is BIFL if you want it to be.

I've owned a a ton of American standard / Corona guitars as well as custom shop guitars and I will have to disagree with this one. The quality of the woods seems a bit better (lighter, more resonant), the components are often better, and the assembly / setup / fret work is way better.

Is it $2k better, that is debatable, but is no doubt higher quality in many real / meaningful ways than the more mass produced American models.

I think that nocaster is an awesome deal for anyone shopping for an instrument of this class!

Lots of IT, doctors, lawyers who can maybe fumble through stairway to heaven will buy these. That's really the target market

Harley Benton are trash guitars. Fret sprout, high action, truss rod barely works... should I go on? How do I know? I bought two of them. Yea, you may find a gem, but good luck on that.

I bet their cheapest line are, I got the 28-in baritone Les Paul with stainless steel frets, it was a signature series guitar, $400 And plays like a dream. The ball end stainless steel frets they used are as smooth as butter, better than any traditional style cut front I've ever used.

Bought a CS closet-classic CuNiFe Telecaster with Bigsby in aged sonic blue from Bizarre Guitar for $2800 as a brand new open-box deal. Lifetime guitar. $3000 for any Tele is a forever keeper.

You'd have to be smoking crack to buy an expensive Fender these days. Fender's quality has gone so downhill, it's insane. Rick Beato did a great video on how trash Fender is now. He got an expensive Fender and still had to replace the neck. If I'm paying this kind of money, I'm going with Suhr.
