Even if the guitar body was made of cardboard that's still a really
good price considering, you also get a book, strap and gig bag!

Probably the combination of CNC machines and under paid Chinese
labours working in unsafe conditions. These imports are then allowed
into our market to compete against, more expensive items made by much
fairer employers who spend money on their staff and their staffs
working conditions. Talk about shooting ourselves in the foot! The
more cheap goods we buy the harder it is for our manufactures to
compete so, the less they pay us therefore, we ending up having less
to spend so buy more cheap goods!

Conscience can be such a spoiler. But it's still hard to resist.
