Electric guitars. They sounded better. Newer ones just sound louder.
They also feel...worse? Jumbo frets, thick coats of polyurethane, cheap pickguards, plastic pickup covers, etc — yuck.
I've been buying weirdo vintage guitars (
teisco, musima) and they feel way better in my hands. The pickups are usually pretty low output, yeah, but the cleans sound so so good.
Looks awesome! I'm guessing the body is about 1" thick?
Well that one is a baritone (26.5" or 27" scale) but still pretty thin (about as thick as the typical strat) and ergonomic.
My other guitar, a 1960s teisco, is one of the lightest guitars I've ever owned:
I'm gonna modify this one though and put a tuneomatic on here, the intonation is quite terrible.
That bridge looks like it's just a flat metal bar, yeah that's gonna cause problems.
