Good luck! They often have bad fret work! Ask TJ!

(Although I've a friend who's bought 4 of them and they've been fine!)

i reserve my comments but not a fan of giving money to a non democratic country who promotes kids to work 15 hour day , 7 day weeks and pays them nothing. I thought Americans and Westerners prided themselves on freedom etc.. blah blah.. sorry for my outbreak.

I agree with you, but you gotta think about the many guitar companies that are outsourcing to other countries, example-80s Kramer guitars were assembled in Neptune NJ, when in fact the bodies and the necks were made by ESP in japan and the Floyd made in Germany. i have a B.C. Rich that was made in Korea, so when a guitar is assembled with parts made in other countries, the guitar company has to give said parts maker a percentage, so ESP-Japan and others. B.C. Rich-Korea,Indonesia etc. do you see what the irony is here?

its weird to me that a country that does not have democratic elections and treats there own people poorly that the rest of the world all of a sudden is cool with them. I like individual people in the country but not the govenment and the fact that 10 years ago everyone was talking 'free tibet' and critisising human rights and now we all bow down and buy the junk that is being produced over there.

I also think Chinese imports is the basis for the economic crisis with industrial jobs being sent over seas. I say tax heavily any western country who produces crap in China so we may get jobs back in North America, Europe etc.

Sorry to go political on a vv forum.

I ment to say tax heavily companies not countries .. its like the only non democrstic country that everyone is cool with all of a sudden. I think I am paranoid but I invision some bad shit from China and its billion people army in the future unless the people get sick and tired and rise up in mutiny.
