    @Strat54, did you offer GB£ as prices in Dublin are Euro. Why not fly over to Dublin for a day and talk to Owen directly. After playing the guitar of course.

    Personally I would touch it - unless it had a Terry Morgan logo.
    To me, it makes no difference whatsoever what logo is on it, I'd take it on its own merit as an instrument. 

    But it is interesting that no one/the usual suspects seem to be screaming fake like they would in a Terry Morgan thread?  What's the difference??
    That was really the point I was making :)
    Mine too. So why are Bravewood revered here and TM's vilified? Seems odd to me...

    I think the same people who are okay with bravewood will be okay with a terry Morgan etc

    That wasn't my intention. 

    (And I will try and go back again today to take another look and have a better chat with Owen)

    I have two main problems with the logo 

    a. How much of it being there sub consciously influenced me? I loved the plugged in tone but I don't think it was the perfect instrument for me. Neck etc. 
    b. At some point in the future I will likely sell it, probably to get a real vintage one. Fact is at that point I will be selling a fake - with all he problems that gives in terms of people being wary.

    Probably because not everyone spends their every waking moment on the forum or because they just can't be arsed rehashing the argument. I wasn't going to bother posting but seeing as the fanboys are desperate for someone to disagree with them I thought I'd oblige. 

    I feel exactly the same about bravewoods as I do about Terry Morgans. I'm sure they are bloody good guitars but putting someone elses logo on it is wrong.

    I've just listed a very nice tele by Sid Poole, hard to imagine a better one and I've owned a bravewood tele before.

    Is that why you're selling it?

    The Poole is a better guitar than the bravewood tele I owned, selling as I just spent a metric tonne of cash on an old strat!

    A maker of high end fake Les Paul's, there is thread you can search for it, there were tears over headstock logos and a fair bit of bed wetting.
