Quality-wise, they're easily on a par with 60s Fenders. Just properly great guitars.

I see your point, but I have a few vintage/old guitars, and have played loads more, and the best of the lot IMO is my 73 Mustang - not their best year, but TBH going by your rationale almost none of the Mustangs would be vintage as they were in the CBS era. The same is true of Tele thinlines and Deluxes.Will wrote:Was it ever answered as to why you want an old guitar? Do they offer some advantage over a current one?
Because I think of vintage as the best of a particular type. So vintage Fenders and Gibsons are from the 50s/early-60s. A vintage Danelectro is from the late 50s, but not the early 50s. A vintage Taylor is from this decade. It's about when the maker hit the peak of their quality.
It seems like semantics, but it becomes important because we're just coming down from a fevered peak in the old guitar market. Guitars that are vintage - the best quality - will retain and continue to grow in value. Ones that are merely old will start to fall. An early-60s Supro is vintage because those are the best Supros; a 70s Fender is old.
The spirit of getting a vintage guitar is in making an investment in the best version of the thing you want. Sometimes that means a current or recent model. So figure out what sort of guitar fits you're needs and buy the best one you can afford, regardless of the name or year.
