China is producing some nice inexpensive guitars, look out America

Picked this up "open Box" for $300.

I added a trem stopper, a new set of strings and did a few minor adjustments and BAM, a really nice player.

Even the pickups sound pretty good.

It looks great but I bet the body wood has the same hardness as tissue paper

Could be, it's supposed to be poplar.

It sounds pretty good, I'll make sure not to chew on it.

It's always a roll of the dice

When you get one of these imports that's actually solid, it's always a hell of a deal

The problem is that half of the time the wood is too wet to even go into a fireplace, which means that youre in dire straights if the neck twists or bows

Either way, this guitar looks good and congrats on an open box steal

I picked up one of those Kramer Pacer Classics real cheap. Total garbage. Pickups unusable. Pickup rings screwed on crooked. Had to replace the locking nut.

But this thing is real nice. Nice binding on the neck. truss rod worked perfectly. Action low and still plays good. The fit and finish is real nice.

Cool, now we just need to remember how to play in bands...and not just sit at how getting tones.

Been there, done that.

No worries, CHINA is making bands that are for sale on Amazon now.
