Actually, you lose 100% the minute you swipe your credit card at the store!
It's true you'll only get back 2/3 what you paid if you ever resell.
Tonally, my experience is the opposite. My Historic J45 is my very favorite sounding guitar--even as Authentics, other Historics, and a '46 SJ have come and gone, that one just has my favorite guitar sound ever. "Tonally"--for people who appreciate this type of sound--the Historic series (in general) has been a grand slam home run.
