The rule of thumb with Fender custom shop is to take the number of production and add a fuckload of zeros.othomas2 wrote:ooh wow, I always really liked the proto...
wonder what that's gonna sell for. Only 60 worldwide.
60 fuckillion dollars.
But really, I'm betting around 10,000 like the other limited runs they do. This guitar is iconic enough to all the old nutty collector types, plus they went all out (if they're bothering to tell you how old the pine is they don't wanna hear your jaw drop when they say it costs a second mortgage).
I've always loved that guitar part from the control plate. I'd love to do an Esquire that had that pickguard and headstock shape and then just rear-routed vol and tone knobs.

i was going to say the exact same thing.portugalwillie wrote:I don't see the point in spending that much money if the thing doesn't have a truss rod :/
cool idea, but if there's no truss rod, then it makes no sense to own that guitar.
Being in love, I've found, is a lot like working at a factory - eventually, you get replaced by either a foreigner or a machine...
