You can find fake ones on AliExpress. Anything there that has a brand name is almost certainly a forgery.
Yeah they said they mostly come from china. They were saying guitar shops are buying from ali express and passing them off as the real thing and making quite the profit
I'd expect QC (in the hands of the players) and things like the inability to redeem a warranty would make that evident. I don't think we can reasonably prevent all forgeries. It's a pretty modern world and we've lost the ability to produce all sorts of stuff.
But, if it is on AliExpress and should be "Made in the USA", then it's almost certainly a forgery.
Yeah why would aliexpress sell anything made in the USA. Though I have heard some of those forgery companies actually work in the factories the genuine article is made and they just make their own with the companies supplies
