You ever play a guitar that has no business being as nice as it is?

For me it's my Squier Bullet. The thing is slightly smaller than a normal guitar, thin plywood body. I always used it to learn how to do repairs and mods so it's a Frankenstein that plays better than a majority of my others.

Ibanez MTM2. Bought it for 300 squiggles brand new for a tour, turned out to be a really solid guitar with a stupid truss rod cover.

The "custom" Charvel I bought from Cam a couple of years ago. For $300 it kicks my other Charvel's asses considering the body is plywood.

Amen to that. When I got mine I compared it to one of the 550 reissues that was 3x the price, and there wasn't that much of a difference.

I was going to say the same one. That neck is awesome. The pickups are great and the body is ply Whatever it sound 10000x better than a bunch of my more expensive guitars.

I’ve got a buddy with a Squire Tele that smokes. Makes zero sense.

My cheapest one... EVH Wolfgang standard Tom bridge. Its butter, much better fret job than my Japanese RG 550 (like all my EVH´s) and it cost me 290 euros new.

For me, it's my 2 Talmans. They aren't even the prestige models and they go neck in neck with my MIJ RGs in build and sound, I use them all the time. The tele copy in particular has an amazing neck.
