So my parents are maybe goin' to china soon, and Im thinkin' that they could buy me guitar from there.
So am asking, if anyone has ever bought guitar from china? And are there lot of fake ones (well ofc there is), and prices etc?
And can anyone give me good website or sumthing

Like GIBSON LP-295 GOLDTOPs prize in china €247.07
and in thomann 2222€

So what I wanted to know, how much cheaper are real guitars there, not fake ones.

They're probably fake if they cost that cheap.
I dunno about guitars to be honest, but we have tons of clothes,shoes (Converse All Star, Vans.....) and such here, they're all fake.

Yeah, they make all Gibsons, Fenders, Epiphones, Squiers,etc. mostly in Japan, China, Korea and Mexico.
My Epiphone is Korean made. My friend's Vintage Fender Strat is Mexican haha.

It's actually possible that those guitars aren't fake since I'm certain that a lot of things in China are a lot cheaper. However, I'm not sure if i'd buy a guitar without trying it out first, or even looking at it in person.

Well cause they are so cheap, I think I'll just give a try without testing it first. If I don't like it, I don't play with it, so simple :D

samueel, I don't know if this guitar isn't a fake one, but like you said, the price is really interesting !
However, guitars from china are nothing compared to american ones !!!

Hey dude,i know the things.Authentic namebrand guitar here is very expensive even they are made in China.Chinese is trying to import authentic guitars from States to sell in China market.So if you want some cheap one ,you can ask your parents to buy one for you.
