Actually Jarrod/DB some PRS Guitars are made by World Guitars Korea. As are some of Perrys,Rob Chapmans,Fenders,Gibsons,Esp,Music Man, Vigier and Kramer. World guitars are known for making the better quality ones,it's a family business and staff are well looked after. But yep strange how companies can put made in the USA on a product.

Thanks for clearing that up Kimball and DrNo :)
So we can assume that custom shop F's are Korean, put together in the USA then.......
Woks....who you supporting in the final of the RWC...?
makes you fell better about Chinese kit guitars hand fitted and finished by the budding builders/luthiers on this site.
not much different to what the big names do and often better results
Interesting Kimball . So the doco I watched seemed to have left that bit of info out. Jeeeezzzz can anyone be trusted to provide what it say's on the tin.Quote:

IMO MiM Squiers are really nice instruments too, I'm considering getting a MiM J bass one day after playing one, with a couple simple, little, inexpensive upgrades you really can end up with a very nice instrument, even with a somewhat thick finish (it was thinner than I thought it was). I agree with DB and Jrod, the so called USA made guitars are just horrid for what you pay for. A legitimate USA made instrument on the other hand like a Ric or a PRS are so worth getting!
So why aren't we charging $5 to $10k for our hand-finished, Made-in-Australia-from-local-and-imported-parts, customised guitars?Quote:
