than marketing and perceived value. During my discussion with the
owner of the Las Vegas Bird he made a statement that is very
relevant. He sells Fender and other guitars. Fender guitars are
famous because of their use by rock and roll stars in the early
years. His statement. "Fender guitars made in Korea are perceived to
be the best because of fabulous marketing. There are far better
technical instruments."

value than an
owner??

I am done and off the box.

every Bluebird owner should continue to talk the
value of their quality Bluebird into the ground until they try to
sell it. You will have established the value for the buyer. At
that time, don't bother with records, upgrades, history or
anything else because they aren't important and represent zero
value. Just hand the buyer your money.

It may be a jewel and it may not.
I'm fix'n to talk to him for a
friend. I will let you know what he says.

of the market for a '90 these days.
