i found one for sale. is $275 a good price? how nice are they? know anything about them? i heard that they are made where another famous manufacture makes there basses also. is this true and who? here is a pic this is a fellow tbers. steve
That's less than the going price for them on Ebay. Yeah, they are probably made by Samick, the company that makes over 50% of the instruments not made in the USA.
Hmmm, now I wonder who THAT could belong to! $275 is probably worth it. They usually go for over $400 on ebay from what I've seen.
i knew someone was going to noitice. thanks i am so all over that 12 string i can't even find them on ebay! all they have is the 8 string. it is the 8 string that are all seperate!!! steve
I was under the impression that there were two big Korean factories - Samick was one, and the place where Galvestons was made was the other. But who knows (or, really, cares ).
Hmm - I dunno. In general mine is reasonable quality - my main beef with it is the balance. But there are some interesting things, like sloppy routing for the bridge pieces: It's like they didn't even use a guide!
