Silenced Fred Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 why, does that alter the tone Fred? Matt I've played a couple in different Guitar Centers, and the build quality is meh. Some were good, others were just awful. The knobs are always off at angle on them, and other thing that I just can't get past for spending 500 on a guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The knobs are always off at angle on them, and other thing that I just can't get past for spending 500 on a guitar Fair enough, it was the build quality that was at fault then with these models - and not the country of manufacture? Sorry to be 'jumpy' quoting you Fred, I have just seen so much improvement in Chinese guitars that I am always curious if people are being negative towards them because they really believe the Chinese people cannot simply make decent equipment (personally I believe they can), or if it is a 'non guitar' reason ie not liking the country politically etc. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The knobs are all off kilter, frets aren't dressed at all, etc. I mean, it can be cleaned up, but I really want a Hanson Guitar. As far as I know, they are made from Korean bodies, then have electronics and set up from Chicago. cool enough for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstMeasure Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I have a soft spot for White. I really like the White EDS-1275 over the cherry version. Love me a white Les Paul (even cooler would be a White Top Les Paul). Really like that White Wilshire, and a White Gretsch Falcon is timeless. Here's a gratuitous shot of my Olympic White Strat. Look at that natural aging, that's what Vintage White is trying to be. and here you can see about how white it was when it was new. That's the shade, under the pick guard. But I digress, Yeah, I dig white guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffster Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Actually I saw an Epi Swingster at GC and the sticker behind the headstock said Made in Indonesia. What's up with that? Also did not know the Swingster is completely hollow, no center block. A white guitar with gold harware...appeals to the pimp in me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crocstar6 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 They need more variety. I mean, they're all beautiful, but all of them are one of the two similiar body shaapes. Id buy one of those in heartbeat if it was in SG. But they also need a Flying V one, that would be spectacular ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
