Are all Fender Custom Shop guitars made in the USA?
[2010-09-27 18:15:11]

Q: I can buy a Fender Strat that says "Custom Shop" on the headstock but it doesn't say "USA". It doesn't say Japan or Mexico either. I am wondering if all Custom Shop guitars are made in the USA. The price for the guitar is $300 and

A: All custom shop Fenders are made in the US. That said, something tells me there's a big, red flag here. You *may* have gotten lucky and can get yourself a bargain of a life-time. Or, you may fall for one of the many forgeries with more expensive guitars

Well American is better than MIM. With your budget it would be smarter to go MIM than MIA. The amp has a lot to do with sounds and the p/u combinations. I.e. You have a strat and want a blues tone, Perfect combination. Les Paul with a real crunchy tone,

I didn’t get much more in trade-in value than I would have selling it on eBay, but selling it would have likely taken a lot longer. Selling wind instruments on eBay is difficult without taking a HUGE loss in price, so I decided to trade the sax in on another instrument. I couldn’t find the bass I wanted at either Guitar Center or on eBay, even though I tried a lot of basses at GC and asked many questions of eBay merchants. Only a few voices – less than 10, no drum machine, 76 semi-weighted keys, stereo speakers, very slight electrical hum noise in the main octave my left hand uses – not bad enough to deal with repacking and shipping back and so forth, so I kept it....

Are Gibson electric guitars made in China nowadays?
[2009-12-16 21:58:46]

I read an online article that indicated that some Gibson electric guitars are actually made, largely, in Chinese factories before tey are "finished off" here in the U.S. Is this true? I grew up believing Gibsons were made in the USA!


True. But that is the same with just about any guitar brand. You just have to make sure they say "Made in the USA", because the majority of them aren't. The ones made in America are usually of higher price and quality.
