All fur coat and no knickers.

And surely no-one approves of real fur coats these days?!?!?!
Sense. This makes none.And surely no-one approves of real fur coats these days?!?!?!
My point is just that a cheap guitar with crappy specs doesn't really get any better for adding a 1mm maple veneer and a price hike.
Well that one went right over your head then
. I was, by analogy, simply agreeing with your point. In that, due to the public consensus that animal fur is bad, no wants the fur coat that you mentioned anyway...
Well, we won't be going into the politics of it here. At least, not twice
Ahh. The wording seemed to imply you disagreed, but I had no idea what you were getting at if that were the case. Fair enough.Well that one went right over your head then
Here we go again.....
I really wasn't looking for opinions on $300 guitars guys...I just wanted to know if anyone has put their hands on one.....
by the way,because GB brought it up, I have a '89 peavey tracer w/maple fretboard (the back of the neck is sanded to 220 grit and t.oiled, profile is close to a wizzard II) it has a kahler 2700 trem and I put a F2 and 2 C1s in it and that guitar SMOKES...I have about $150 in it w/hard shell case.
No they don't have good resale value, but as me and GB have discussed "cheap guitars vs. expensive guitars" to death in a discussion about 8 months ago, I have to, again,defend the "cheap" guitar. If I have to swap pickups and spend some time on getting a good setup, I'm VERY cool with that....
Would/could someone please just answer the question at hand and it wasn't
"What's your opinion on the quality of these guitars?".......
you're welcome
yea no floating trems in the 90's, though I believe the late 80's predators had kahlers, but that's a little old... May end up spending more time fixing it than playing it. but if you do it right you can go a long way with a vintage trem too. I have a washburn x-33 with a vintage trem and i dive bomb the hell out of it. just gotta mess with the screws and stuff. But anyway i'm probably just beating a dead horse, honestly for what you need it for it's sounds like the newer predator would be just fine. New, fairly cheap, and pretty reliable. Chinese stuff really isn't all bad, my reservation for it is mostly just out of spite, not really bad experience.
