Agreed, a quality pre-fab and modular can put an average stick build to shame.

Much tighter quality control, totally protected from the elements while much of the work is done, actually engineered to ensure fitment not just nailed together one board at at time. Many Many benefits.

Not saying a top shelf stick build gives up anything, the problem is finding a top shelf stick builder, but I suppose the same could be said of the pre-fab and modular industry. Many low quality companies out there and some really good ones. I think the big difference is that top quality stick builders are usually backlogged as much as 2 years, and they are almost double the cost of the average builder. Its an interesting market and very busy at the moment.
