Chinese Schecters?

[vespasian1]

Howdy.
I already did a search, but can't find an answer.

I'm reading recently that Schecters are being made in China. Does CORT have a factory in China or Taiwan now?

Does anyone know exactly which basses are being made in China?

Thanks.

Havent really heard that one. I own a scheter elite-5 and this particular was made in korea...

Probably doesn't help much

I think the Extreme and Deluxe series basses are made in China. But don't quote me on that...only reason I say is because if they're anything like the Omen Extreme series electric guitars (which are made in China) then it would make sense. Anything above those two models "should" be made in Korea...

The Diamond J is made in China now. I held the bass and saw it with my own eyes. Also, the Schecter solo 6 is also being made in China. Saw it with me own eyes too!

For those who've seen the Chinese made Schecters, is there a noticeable difference in overall fit/finish between the Korean made ones vs the new Chinese made ones?
