Fender Road Worn Series
Moderated By: mods
I did play a couple of these. All though they felt decent, I would never even consider paying 950 for them or whatever they are going for....If they were 600 or maybe 700 new, I might pick a used one up down the road... Anyone here think a relic'd import is going to hold value as well as an American standard?
They say great minds think alike....Sometimes we do too...
id rather do my own fake relic than pay extra for them to do it. that just seems dumb.
plus, the neck on my tele AMSTD is better feeling than these necks. once its worn in itll really be. the fret edges and rolled fretboard make the difference, i think.
its really appalling what they are trying to pull here: cheaper than normal finish, reusing b stock, made in mexico, for nearly a grand. fuck you fender.
if these were just really fucking nice, shiny new MIMs then maybe the price would be OK. id think they were overpriced but they wouldnt come off as a thinly veiled scam. these guitars just seem dishonest. and if you are playing one, you will seem dishonest. who puts that wear in those places? plus, if you arent at least 50 you didnt put wear like that on any guitar, period. so get over it.
