this may be moved but anyhow, i go to MF alot and they are not bad people.....but i wish there was a tinge more honesty to the sales pitch.....i know---that makes bad business-----when i see an ad for a jackson "india made"(not mentioned) guitar for $1000 bux it makes me angry it has 1 bridge humbucker that is "duncan designed" ----it has a "hand painted" body but that is about it----the quality is that of a guitar worth 2-300 bux...or how about ads for a guitar with "a mahogany back and maple top" when in reality it is a maple LAMINATED top which has very minimal affect on tone..the sound is most important as well as playability imo, the pretty red marshall Mgfx halfstack (which is quite small compared to the pics they show) ...it is no way comparable to let's say a triple lead----but the ad makes it sound like you are getting all that and a bag of peanuts....might point is that to the beginner may well be fooled by this type of advertising----it seems to be a school of hard knox in purchasing for newbies. Discuss....
