I've just been reading about high end priced Telecasters, the reissue authentic replicas of early 50s historic guitars.

Paying the best part of £2000 for a bass ball bat neck which most young modern players would find extremely uncomfortable
and difficult to play.

But the ethos being some older 'discerning' players are very happy to pay a premium price for a guitar
you literally have to fight against to wring out of it that 'desirable' vintage feel and tone....

Out of adversity comes satisfaction and beauty !!!????? 😕
