NancyJohnson Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Has anyone here bought a bass or guitar direct from any far east sellers? You know, like the stuff described as Chibson. P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellyfish Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 No, but I've done quite a bit of research in the past regarding the quality of instrument you get. The general opinion tends to be that they're only worth the effort if you're interested in replacing parts on them I.E. the bridge, the nut, the electronics etc. I wanted something awesome looking, but that could at least be played out of the box so I avoided them!

Annoying Twit Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 This thread is much better: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/nbd-fauxdera-content-981940/ It includes someone buying a Chinese Fodera fake, and then taking it to the Fodera workshop, and one of the managers (owners?) of Fodera posting about the instrument.
