Clapton was a strat user long before Fender collaborated with him
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I think of Dan Donegan who I mentioned earlier, he went from PRS to Washburn to Schecter. And remember when Paul Stanley was endorsing Silvertone? It shows how low Kiss had fallen at that point.
Having said that, someone like Dave Mustaine changes endorsements but basically forces then to build the same guitar he had with the previous company. And I guess there might be some people who have a collection of Mustaine Jacksons, ESPs, Deans and now Gibsons.
However - guilty as charged back in 1989. I went to see Neil Young play a great solo show, and he was vocal to announce only using his Pro Co Rat. I immediately sought one out (used of course !).
Still got it…
And have to admit that if Fender released an authentic Dean Ween Strat copy, I would be In Like Flynn.

So rather than having fallen they were making bank on the stuff , but I agree that it seemed a step down from Ibanez and Washburn. Incidentally he moved from Ibanez/Hoshino because they wouldn't simply give him guitars to smash on stage.
