Topic: COPY GUITARS

IVE BEEN PLAYING 50 ODD YEARS AND IN THAT TIME IVE BOUGHT MANY COPY GUITARS. ONE OF THE BEST PLAYING WAS A BROADWAY RICKENBACKER .I SOLD IT TO MY BROTHER IN LAW WHO COULD BUY ANY GUITAR [HE EARNS MORE THAN I COULD COULD SPEND]. HE IS NOW TRYING TO TRACE THE SAME. IVE ALSO HAD A VERY GOOD SQUIRE STRAT THAT I SOLD ON FOR MORE THAN I BOUGHT IT FOR.  [WHY]??? MORAL FIND A GOOD COPY THAT PLAYS WELL WITH HARMONICS 12TH FRET 5TH FRET IF YOU CAN GET 7TH FRET ALL THE BETTER. YOU HAVE A GOOD NECK AND BODY. WHEN YOU GO TO BUY FOR YOUR DISCOUNT INSIST ON A SET OF SCHALER MACHINE HEADS AND YOU WILL HAVE NO TUNING PROBS.   
I HAVE 1966 GIBSON ES330TD, 1970 FENDER STRAT, THE FIRST THING I DONE ON BUYING WAS TO CHANGE MACHINE HEADS TO SCHALER NO MATTER WHAT PLEASE BUY A GUITAR BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT STANDARD YOU GET TO ,NOTHING WILL EVER GIVE YOU AS MUCH BUZZ AS PLAYING SHOULD YOU PLAY IN A TOP BAND OR AT YOUR NEIGHBOURS BARBECUE WITH 3 CORD WONDERS.
