    I am old enough to have played and guitar shopped in the early 80’s and 90’s. So much of what was sold was what I consider trash quality and doesn’t hold a candle to the precision CNC stuff being cranked out on the cheap now. I doubt that age would have magically made those old stock guitars better.

    I do agree with your general sentiment, if I understood it correctly. I have been a watch collector and a classic car collector, so I do understand the concept of owning history or owning a product of craftsmanship rarely found now. Not all old stuff has memorable history or quality craftsmanship. Sometimes old stuff is just old.
