And people wonder why it's a Fender and Gibson dominated guitar world!

Are you sure about that ?

I could be wrong , but i'm sure I read somewhere that the largest manufacturer was Samick , under various guises .

Anyone know for sure ?

Well whether or not Samick builds more guitars or Ibanez does, or whatever company does...

The whole world is building and playing Fender and Gibson, either the real thing or knock-offs! And that's what I meant. We're all playing "Teles" "Strats" "Les Pauls" "Explorers" "Vs" or "SGs"

And as much as I love my two Gretsch 6120s (1959 original, and 2006 double-neck) there ain't no great line-up for Gretsch.

I do like a good Gretsch

I originally stuck to Gibson Semis and even a great lil Japanese Aria , but the Gretches look so damn cool , even if the Gibsons play a little better in my opinion .
Been thinking about that Gretch type Tele a lot lately too lol .

I need to write 100 times :

I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -I already have too many guitars -

Hmmm, these are not so nice, but some truly ugly guitars reside at www.cheesyguitars.com

Some of these must have been copied from a xeroxed copy of a grainy photograph from an out of focus gig pic.

And folks over the then Iron Curtain had no alternative but to try and make music on these!!!!
