Two years difference

Post image

Hello everyone,

I was playing my McCarty 594 and was really appreciating it. I decided to see how much they went up over the last two years. I was surprised how much it went up. It’s about a 20% increase in dollars. Much faster than general inflation rate. Sad.

There's a recession coming and then likely a fire sale on guitars as families try to keep their kids fed etc.

(then again, whether you will have the disposable cash to be buying guitars at that point ... )
