Nobody has mentioned wood. vintage guitars are built with better quality wood.Old first growth wood is about gone.New guitars with modern man. techniques are more consistent,where as old tech,handwound pickups, old capacitors and pots were higher quality. Newer stuff doesn't last as long. I change newer pots and such,much more often in newer guitars, where vintage still have the originals,most of the time.
Not all pros have custom guitars built,but they do have guys like me to keep them set up to their preferences.I find most new from factory guitars need additional set up work as well
They just don't build em like they used to. You know, like 911's.
