OK,
Did I get your attention?
I just purchased (on ebay) from a music store, a brand new Guitar. A Seagull Maritime SWS Folk type guitar made in Canada. Solid cedar top and solid Mahogany back and sides. With hard case I purchased this guitar for less than $750 delivered. It is unbelievable in construction, materials , finish and sound. I have a William King tenor a Compass Rose tenor and a Kanile'a Super tenor, all cost a lot more than the Seagull and barely sound or look as good. I wish Seagull made ukuleles.
Really, I don't know how they do it. No cheap Chinese labor.
I paid $2000 plus for my King, both are hand made but value and quality are totally different. Quality I perceive as equal, value is no contest, Seagull wins.
I can't figure it?
