I have heard really really good things about this company's copy guitars. I ordered a Telecaster copy for my brother and I'm thinking of getting a semi hollow tele for myself.
The word is that even though their low end guitars are $100-$150 the quality is equal to 3-4x that, comparable to high end Ibanez and Epiphone guitars. I am very curious to lay my hands on the $120 telecaster I ordered.

Anyone with some experience on these let me know what you think. If you are in the market for a guitar and don't want to spend on a full Gibson or Fender....check these out and look at some reviews.

This is one of those things (new guitar(s)) I keep meaning to buy but never get around to buying.

The funny thing is that I'm a drummer. I have 5 guitars....
2 more than the number of chords that I know. But they do make a really cool wall decoration.

Most real guitarists will tell you that not everyone can play like Johnny. He was blazing fast and only played downstrokes. This means he had to stroke twice as many times.
People make fun of the fact that it was 3 chord power rock and conveniently forget that pretty much every guitarist who followed him looked up to him.
He changed how power chords were played....and the Ramones saved Rock and Roll!

No. I am ever trollable.
But that is because I am both passionate and right. Never doubt my resolve or the fact that I sincerely and completely believe every word I say about the Ramones.
My son actually prepares people for it; "I gotta tell you, My Dad is a little looney about the Ramones so they will probably come up somehow. Whatever you do don't mention the Beatles or U2. Just smile and nod and tell him that you liked the Ramones just fine. And when he tells you that they saved Rock and Roll just smile like you agree or we will be here all night."

I know how that goes, once one of my son's friends expressed an interest when I was building a large rocket and I gave him the entire history of high power rocketry including the "who flew the G" incident, I finally took pity on him when I saw his eyes glaze.

At least you aren't pissing your wife off buying guitars. I have a nice Deering Good Time 2 banjo I play and it is really all I need but then I had to spend $2700 on a restored Baldwin Ode because my hero Bobby Thompson played one. Even with all the shit I took I'm still glad I bought it.
