I ended up buying it even tho it was the chinese model, because it was 120 bucks.
I have a very decent strat that is my main guitar and this is just a hollow body for fun... but man for the money its a great guitar. It has the hollowbody sound, the pickups are hot, the fretboard was super dry, but I oiled it and it shines beautifuly, the action can be set low and its actually in tune...
I'd compare it to 350-400 dollar hollowbody guitars that I tried in the store...
