Nothing wrong with that because I ain’t an expert too, but don’t act like you or someone else here knows more than someone you don’t know, that’s hilarious. That’s OK. And it is hilarious, because Echi and I both do know more about this subject than you do. Sorry. And, while I may have been off about the tuner swap, you should ignore Echi’s concerns at your own peril. Also, the swapping out of high-end Fusteros is a common practice these days. There is a recent post here of another, same vintage, Conde that I know for sure originally had the higher end Fusteros on it but is now sporting Gotoh tuners. But, you’re right, if the guitar you want was originally made with low-end tuners, then at least you now know. Finally, I am not a Conde hater, I own a nice one. If you check over past postings you will see I invariably champion them, rather than put them down. But, I have to say the BS to reality ratio grows exponentially when people start talking Conde. I don’t know why, it started out as a joke apparently, but people regularly come on here spouting BS and expecting members, who actually do know their sh*t, to sit back and accept it. But it is misinformation, and I see no reason to countenance it, beyond that not being nice all the time apparently is bad for one’s career. Oh well, lol... All this talk still don’t change my opinion about this. Maybe you know more about the craft than I do, but I didn’t see it yet. And that’s also not that important to me, we’re here to give each other our thoughts and experiences, at least I am. I own an electric guitar store for more than 25 years now, I don’t know you, maybe you know more about electric guitars than I do. That’s what I mean.
