DING DING DING....Welcome to the champion fight of the year... in the left corner... those who hate relic guitars... in the right.... those who either love 'em, or try to just go by how they sound. Imagine if you had picked up a Paisley Tele (in Pink) in 1968... 'Darn... I can't play this in front of anyone... I'm a guy'... but nobody is around you in the store... so you strum a few chords... and WOW... for some reason (as it sometimes is)... they just GOT IT RIGHT... and no matter WHAT color she is, you've got to have her. Well.. for those who HATE relic guitars... they are probably here to stay for a while... but if you find one that really rocks, don't miss the boat based on how she looks. It's quite a topic of discussion I know... and it can get heated at times... but it's about how they play, and how they sound. I write about them here, because most of the Masterbuilders are putting their time into Relic's... because that is what SELLS... so if you want a great guitar, you might have to close your eyes when you play...
