Are all Chinese guitars that bad??? Seems to me that most of the people I meet in the medical schools and hospitals these days are young, aspiring Chinese students that are brilliant and very resourceful and creative...I just have a hard time with the generalization that all Chinese products are sub-standard. Is it that the materials are significantly lower grade or that the labor is poor? I know it's cheaper, but that was the wrap on Korean instruments when they first started being shipped there for production...now, most Korean made instruments rival their American counterparts in quality of both parts and labor.
