Are Chinese guitars any good?
A Chinese guitar can be great if the companies allow it. When a company outsources to China, it's usually to produce a high amount of guitars for a cheap price. If that's their goal, they're not going to be very good quality. But they also make some great quality guitars, just look at the Ibanez Chinese customs.
Is Les Paul made in China?
If you think of an electric guitar, the picture you have in your head is probably a Gibson Les Paul. ... Epiphone makes its own version of the classic Les Paul, but they cost a whole lot less (under $600 for a Classic or a Standard). This is largely because they are manufactured overseas — in China, Korea and Indonesia.
What is Chibson USA?
Chibson USA is a mysterious online entity which bills itself as “more than just a shell company,” and which has racked up a huge following on social media (181K on Instagram, 36K on Facebook) by playing upon the Chibson phenomenon — and the strong emotions it conjures up among dedicated guitar players.
Are Chinese Epiphones any good?
Chinese Epis are just as good as the older Korean ones. When Gibson opened their own Epi plant in China that they still supervise. Epis have gotten so much better IMHO the best they have ever been.
