Picker doesn't show the full line up from Vintage. I only paid 419 for my V100 GT. The Icon series is killer. They make a "Lemon Drop" which is an exact reiplica of the Peter Green/Gary Moore Les Paul. A buddy of mine in England bought it and it sounds amazing.
Their Reiliced Strats and Les Pauls are really well done. The wilkinson pickups are very nice.
They are made in Asia and are very well done. I had a couple of high frets on mine so I had my tech do a fret level and set up. 100 bucks and worth every penny.
The company JHS is very good to deal with, and I have had emails from their head of production, and Trev Wilkinson about the P90s. Their prices are based on the UK pound so it will fluctuate with the US Dollar. I have compared my GT to the Epiphone GT and mine wins hands down, with the Wilkinson hardware and the stacked Wilkinson P90s.
For a couple of hundred less.
Now I don't know about the Strats being as nice as the CV50s, I really haven't played them much, but I would really doubt they could match that quality.
If you get a chance listen to the sound clips for the various guitars on there website.
Pretty cool stuff.
