Holy Cow...

John made a 'Holy Cow' comment re: San Dimas Relic Nitrocellulose Fiesta Red 21 Fret, Retro-fit Floyd Rose, Non-Recessed Backplate Guitar, aged by Chip Ellis at Charvel... to the effect that at $3195 that is a pricey guitar.... considering one can get a neat Harmony, Silvertone or Eastwood for much less. True. I still think it is a much better bargain than buying a run-of-the-mill Relic Fender from your local guitar store for the same money. I love the simplicity about the San Dimas, the aging... and also the Floyd Rose. No need to spend that kind of money John... REAL San Dimas Charvels are going around $900... and are slated to be the popular guitar of the next decade... the way Eric Clapton somehow knew to buy up old Fenders in the 60's... for $100 a pop. The new Charvels and Jacksons will only (for my mind)... drive interest to the older ones too....
