Vintage guitars are super expensive, but what is actually so different about them compared to the guitars sold on the market today?
It is said that as wood dries, its density tightens, the tone becomes drier, and the neck resonates more, making the sound better. Also, unlike the mass-production era of the 1970s and beyond, the 1950s and 1960s featured high craftsmanship, and it is said that there are many truly well-made guitars. However, because there are many enthusiasts and prices are high, it might be best to try one out for yourself and decide. Some people think modern guitars are also quite good, and that today's custom shop guitars are better, including in terms of usability.
