Fender licensed entities) that it's nearly impossible for
first time buyers to have any idea what the differences are
or why there are so many in the first place..."

You shouldn't have to look too hard. Some recent Les Pauls have had
plugs of wood removed from the mahagony body, underneath the maple cap,
in order to reduce weight. And some Strats are QUITE heavy. |
