wait.....something is wrong. The Eastwood version is priced higher than the real thing. I'm confused

I am digging that Model 400 however.

maybe a US vs. Canadian dollar thing. Assuming that they are the same guitar being sold direct and through Eastwood

Both sites feature Eastwood far-East manufactured guitars... just one site is US and the other Canadian...

I like the looks of them but a guitar needs a lot more than just looks to be worth buying IMHO.

I would look ridiculous with one of those. And it is all about the look in this case.
