AlanH Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Sorry if this has been posted already but the fact that it's made in Japan raised my eyebrows. Not sure I like the upper horn though. Link: http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Les-Paul/Epiphone/Tak-Matsumoto-DC.aspx Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungrycat Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I don't think it is actually made in Japan. It's exclusively sold in Japan, as per Mr. Matsumoko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dxdgenert Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Body shape really reminds me of the PRS. Looks like a fantastic guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanH Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 It's quite misleading the way it's advertised, I think. It actually annoys me that guitar manufacturers often don't state the country of manufacture against the description of the instrument. Kramer, LTD and BC Rich are all very cagey about it so it's difficult to tell whetgher you're going to get a Korean, Indonesian or Chinese made instrument.

That's why I find the reviews in mags such as Guitarist so helpful, they usually have the country of origin in the specs section at the end of each review. This doesn't help of course if the gear you're after hasn't been reviewed, but it does mean that information must be available somewhere, or from someone.

sixx_ gunner Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Not so sure about that upper horn as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
