I was in a guitar shop the other day and there was a Gibson Melody Maker for £399.

 

It looked like a total bag of shite. Awful. Cheap finish, horrid decal. Really vile.

 

These Chinese ones look great in comparison!

 

Gibson quality is awful these days. I doubt if the Chinese are much worse! ;-)
