Aiersi guitars , a big difference for “factory guitar” and “luthier guitar”, all aiersi guitars are real luthier made indeed .
The difference between a “factory guitar” and a “luthier-made” guitar is the amount of time involved in the “fine tuning” aspects of the production process. Even world-famous luthiers use “machinery” in the production process, such as routers, band saws, power sanders, joiners and the like. Most world-famous luthiers do not do all the work themselves, but assign some of the “less important” tasks to apprentices and assistants in their shops.
The process of automating the procedures in a factory setting insures that the quality is consistent from one individual piece to another. The only way to efficiently produce a quality instrument in the $200 to $2,000 price range is to automate as much of the process as possible and locate the production facilities in a country where wages are low. In the lower price ranges, the cost of the materials is also a major factor. Here, the factories have the advantage of buying power, because they purchase their materials in larger quantities than individual luthiers.
Aiersi stock many pieces imported materials ,Natural dry over 5+ years at least , for our high grade all solid material handmade guitars, sometimes, we use nearly 10+ years stocked materials. most of factories they dry materials by heat machine at short time. so this is why easily broken or changed .

Once you start moving into the higher-end guitars, in the $5,000 to $20,000 range and up, the labor costs go way up, while the cost of materials remains the same, for the most part.
Various guitar parts, especially the tops and bracing, are individually and expertly tuned, and great time and effort go into the finishes and the finishing process. This is the point at which the manufacturing process turns into a fine art, and most of the “hands-on” work is personally done by the “master luthiers” themselves. Some luthiers do 100% of the production work personally, while others assign much of the less demanding work to highly-skilled helpers.
