I have owned many many foreign made gits and some of them are 10x better than the USA or Quebec made gits..in the end dont judge a book by its Made in ???, some are amazing...some suck
Congrats again an happy picking. |
You're spot on there ssstewart, just gotta pick em up and play em. I'll post up a pic soonest! As much as I prefer older, vintage instruments, the 2014 Sheri II definitely looks and feels like more of a solid build, like a cadillac... For truckers... The 80's Sheri was appealing mostly for the age and novelty, but I did notice it seemed a little more cheap looking even though it held its tune beautifully. The 2014 has got a nice chunky neck and you feel like you've got more of a beast in your hands
It's a little on the glam side with it's ebony body and gold hardware, but definitely worth placing in the 1st team for abit.
