Re: Cheap Guitars

You know all of my guitars have always been in the less than $250 range. I've wanted to get a couple of guitars (Gretsch and Yamaha) that would run more in the $800-$1000 range but I'm deathly afraid that after acquisition I would never play my cheapo guitars again... It's exactly the opposite with...

You're at 250+ ?
I'm at 140 (130 electrics, 10 acoustics). I shouldn't buy any more electrics but probably will. I would like a few more acoustics though.

271, to be exact... :oops: :roll:

Re: Mist of Fire!

The build quality of the early MIC Harley Bentons I have (about 7-8 years ago) were pretty much on par with SXs of the same period. However, the build quality of the ones produced in Indonesia the last three years or so is unreal for the price point as doc-knapp mentioned above. I have no Idea how t...
