Buy something of quality not from China, in the long run you will be alot happier -- Their is also questions about slave labor in China - or should i say human rights violations ! You can get phenominal sounding guitars for not alot of dough ( that are not Chinese ), Id put my Larrivee OMv60 up against any Blueridge guitar - seriously !

Ever had a blueridge in your hands? I own a Br160. dam fine guitar. dam fine qaulity. never owned a larrivee so no comment on them. you can get slave labor right here in our very own united states. hell why dont we just invade china and straighten them out. write george a letter he'd probably like that idea.
