Members SoloArtist Posted June 25, 2009 Members Share Posted June 25, 2009 I've purchased quite a few things from Ebay but never a guitar. They can talk all they want about what it is but unless you actually see it in person, you have no way of knowing if what you saw in the ad is the instrument you'll get. The only guitars I've ever purchased sight unseen were from Martin Guitar. I deal with artist relations and they picked two serious winners for me. The market is flooded with Chinese knock-off guitars thanks to companies like Gibson who allowed theirs to be made in Asia. Now you really can't tell the counterfeits from the real deal until the neck falls off after a few years. I've gotten a bad taste in my mouth from the whole thing so now I will only buy instruments made in North America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skippydmongoose Posted June 25, 2009 Members Share Posted June 25, 2009 i've probably bought 30 or more guitars off of ebay and online without ever having seen them. never been screwed once. i do my homework. you can't bid on just anything. you have to know what to look for.
