It looks like a nice guitar, but at the end of the day it's still only a copy. I never liked guitars that use the same font on the headstock as the popular brands.

That's gonna cost about €800.

i wouldn't personally, you can get better guitars for the price.

mmm, not sure. I think it's all about the quality of the piece regardless of the name on the headstock. Supposedly this is a Japanese home brand that has become very popular due to the quality of the workmanship - but I don't know, never having seen one in real life....

Anyway, isn't a Ferrari just a copy of a model T - 4 wheels, engine, seats

Yep, the price is more than what I would pay...just looked like an interesting piece.....

i do indeed like the finish myself.

That's what drew me in the first place. What does that finish feel like? Looks kinda sticky.
