To me, if it plays good and sounds good, then its a good guitar. I dont put much stock in to what collectors think, they dont play 'em!

Yes, yes we do. You just can't imagine playing a $50k guitar.
Hint: It plays pretty much like every other guitar, sometimes worse.
That's what I thought. I am sure there are $50,000 guitars that play like butter and some $50,000 guitars that are basically unplayable, but they draw that price for being a 52 Les Paul or Strat or whatever it is. But that unplayable 52 valuable guitar really wouldn't be worth much to me beyond a decoration. I like to play the guitars I have. I do have some unplayable acoustic guitars laying around but they look cool. A pile of acoustic guitars in the corner looks cool to me anyways, LoL
Hmm...
I'm not sure what to say to that, because I don't like committing to anything.
I'm tempted to send you a valuable guitar (assuming you'd send it back, of course) after setting it up properly. The value of many guitars is the rarity, but most every guitar out there can be made playable. Anything unplayable really isn't worth much. Collectors aren't idiots. Not even a little bit. You might think they are, but they value things other than what you value - but things still must be playable for it to hold value.
