someone please explain this to me

Happy to.

One is a complete piece of shit, the other is an overpriced USA Fender.

Better perhaps to compare $80 to the mid range where you can get a decent serviceable copy. 'Bang buck ratio always decreases at the upper end.

So true. It might be hard to find a playable difference between my $1K Strat & a $2K Strat--but that $80 starter? Have you ever picked up a First Act in Walmart and tried to play it? Not even remotely in the ballpark of a real guitar...

Why do you feel the need to make fun of my guitar? That's seriously not cool man.

There's nothing more soothing to the ears than a First Act mic'd up with a Neumann U87 at the 3rd fret running through a vintage Neve. Add some chorus, some spring reverb, and a little ping pong delay and you've got yourself and automatic hit. A HIT I TELL YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's pretty obvious really. Fender prices the guitars they are proud to sell accordingly. Then they make guitars for people who would like to be considered cool.
There are Yugos and Rolls Royces. Those two guitars have nothing in common, don't kid yourself junior.

in your opinion would a Soundelux ifet7 get as good a result as the Neumann with a First Act guitar?

This will make you wonder all over again

Signature Series

It's all relative........ I guess.

wow thats worse then steve vai's jem. 1200 dollars for a basswood body guitar that should normally cost 200.

although i guess there are ALOT of mods on that guitar... i still think it way overpriced

one's black
one's red.

Red costs more.



duh.

I'd have to go with Dogbreath on this one. Obviously red guitars out perform
any other color guitar on the market. I think I read somewhere that guitarist with OCD should stay away from them though.
