Members Chordite Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 I had a Shine tele. Quality was good and a nice neck. They make guitars for other big names Epiphone, Ibanez and Peavey I would say use it for a while before you make the executive decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted November 17, 2015 Moderators Share Posted November 17, 2015 Shine (Saein Corpn) used to be a major supplier to Epiphone, indeed Gibson Epi used them for particular models, due to their state of the art Korean factory, and they also did some work for Ibanez. However they then opened at least one Chinese factory for it's budget models and it was this factory that also produced the budget range for Rondo Music. They are no longer manufacturing to any high degree, but that model looks like an older Korean made model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chordite Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 It looks similar to this current model but with a tremhttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SHINE-SIL-...IAAOxyeglTXptISimilar style with the same EMG's in HSH arrangement. You are presumably unable to ask the brother in law who just gave you these two like new guitars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted November 18, 2015 Moderators Share Posted November 18, 2015 Chordite found the only link to the former Saein world, ie Chase guitars, and English guitar reseller, who I think bought up a huge amount of their stock and have their own brands built there...and still have the SIL-710, that I've been trying to squeeze out of them for 10 years at a silly price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
