American Guitars

Ok, so I love small volume guitars, made in the USA. I think US made guitars are the greatest in the world, I basically despise other makes, I can barely play asian made instruments, I guess japanese made are OK, but I just can't bring myself to pay what they're asking for them. So, I have a small number of quality american instruments. It's not that I have anything against these other countries, I love my japanese made electronics, nobody does electronics better, Germany makes the finest cars on earth, but America makes the finest guitars anywhere. Let's see I have a Kubicki X-Factor, a Breedlove acoustic, Several Godins, admittedly only 50% made in america, 50% made in Canada, and a Jerry Jones Guitars "electric sitar", these are replicas of danelectro's from the 60's but are made to an incredible standard. So get rid of those Tak's and Ibanez, run out and buy Breedloves and Taylors and Jet's and Quicksilver's and Nash's or even Tom Andersons or Colling's or Martins, maybe a Guild or even a Dean. Forget about those Fender's and Gibson's for what you're paying for those you could get yourself a really nice custom intrument. I was in GC watching a guy BUY an $8000 dollar vintage Gibson, I wanted to grab him and scream JET, JET, JET, you could have a custom made JET for that price. Ed Roman says JET is the best guitar made today handmade by ONE guy. Go Buy American Guitars.
