Like you said @OilCityPickups , beginner/budget based guitars are so superior now to what was offered to customers 30-50 years ago

Imagine playing free and lynyrd skynyrd covers on that.
I didnt get an electric for another 6 years. An Ibanez RG model. It was sensational.
I'd ordered a guitar from a neighbours catalogue. Typical shit Stratocaster clone. But they sent a bass by mistake. My neighbour said "do you want it?" I said no and it was sent back. And then they sent the Epiphone 435i.
I think it was likely a mistake. It certainly wasn't in the catalogue and I was only charged the price of the terrible catalogue Strat.

The real winner was the tele though which as a lifelong Gibson-style player surprised me the most. Loved it and made the LPs feel/sound really lacklustre - perhaps I'm finally over my LP phase!
