Epi question and gloat

[Geezer]

It's been a while since I've posted. Question first; how old should
a guitar be before it's considered vintage, does a 93 qualify?
Now the gloat; after many years of scratching around flea markets,
yard and estate sales, etc I finally made a score. Two guitars, an
acoustic Eterna (low end Yamaha), and a 1993 Korean made Epi
LP Custom. It needed a tuner bushing and sleeve, and an input
jack and plate. I got the tuner squared away, waiting for the jack
to arrive. I cleaned it and set it up, this thing plays great, sweet
tone. Came with OHSC. The reason the gloat; both pieces for
$15.00!!!
Don't give up looking....!

Here is an old thread on "what is a vintage guitar" Geezer.



I should say gloat. The only better deal is if they pay you to carry the guitars away

Thanks for the link. I did not consider this guitar to be vintage,
but I have seen a couple of 93's described as such. The terms
classic, vintage, and antique seem to be used out of context
as an advertising or bragging term.
I will say the condition is this Epi is about an eight, with
minimal (almost none) fret wear.

Well I reckon a guitar starts its vintage life at around 20 years old. The graph of vintage-ness (lets call it ) goes up exponentially from there.
