D@mn & I already spent this year's yule-log budget!
I know this has been brought up before.....but it never ceases to amaze me!
I love Tele's....... but some folks seem to have more money than sense...or am I missing something here (besides 5 or 10 grand to spend to be a gear corksniffer)?

It could come up a million more times and I still don't think we would get a response like "I think it's worth every penny"Originally Posted by oldguy
They keep on producing them, so someone out there is buying them. I would like to meet just one to ask "How do you feel this replica is worth the asking price?" I may find out that they got 10% knocked off the asking price

and since John English died, you can trust that the prices for the guitars under his name will rise even more, like that Esquire.
have you guys checked Bill Nash??
He`s been making custom guitars for sometime, and the quality is just as good as any other bigger guy around, and in a much more affordable price
As long as some idiot will pay that price. Fender will keep making them.As the saying goes,some people have more money than brains!:
I agree with Adrian 600 to 1000 no more.

How would you like to be the store owner sitting on that much in inventory hoping someone will walk into your store, fall in love with it and actually have enough cash to buy it? I think I'd rather be a farmer. The odds are better that it will rain. This must be why they are on ebay because they have no local market.

a couple of my ex's would say that I am a fool.......even if I had that kind of money it would not be spent on some replica guitar......or even the real blackie for that matter. What some people justify for toys is just amazing to me.
