On the other had I've never played a single Suhr, Anderson or any other posh copy of a Fender that I've really liked, and most simply leave me completely cold. The only one that came close was an old 80s Schecter Dream Machine that I owned briefly, which sounded fantastic but was overbuilt and too heavy. All the rest have been just bland and boring in my opinion.
That's all really.

I've found some high end guitars are sometimes set up too well, with too low of an action which can be to the detriment of the tone.
However I also think you can overbuild a guitar. My own Fender sounds best with the stock parts, I tried Callaham saddles and block for a while but went back to the originals.

The funny thing is that if we see it on a car it's beige and it's boring. If we see it on a Tele it's called Butterscotch and it's lovely!
That said the pink Telecaster is a much more vibrant and amazing sounding guitar. The only Tele I have played that was as good was a 50s body and a custom shop neck. (and it was much harder to play).
Neither are relics mind you. I´m quite capable of damaging them myself.
Better woods better pick pick ups nicer necks and fretboards just better buy one you know it makes sense.
CAn only get that spec on a custom shop one (10,5 inch radius neck, Nocaster pickups, pink)- No tele is cooler.
