These guitars are featured on late night infomercials and the following is a review from harmony central I thought you may find interesting.
Quote : | "Overall Rating: 1 I have played since I was 12 years old, this makes 35 years now. I have a Taylor 910ce and Seagull S6. I wish I had asked how many were returned. This guitar cannot be stolen or sold, I reworked the face on the guitar and made it into a toilet seat for my outhouse at the cabin. The rest of it I am ashamed to say I put in the trash. I was afraid of the chemicals they used would poison me if I used them in the fireplace or used as mulch. This was an impulse purchase for a cheapie guitar for the cabin. All I wanted was a cheap cheap guitar. This thing is better as toilet seat than it ever was as guitar." |

You get what you pay for...
if you order a guitar off the Home Shopping Network, you deserve to get a piece of crap. 12/16/2005 8:42:31 AM |

I can't believe he would own a Taylor and then buy this guitar off television. 12/16/2005 2:30:32 PM |

Quote : | "Reliability/Durability: 1 My daughter bought it and I played it once. She played it for a couple weeks. Then one day I arrived home from work and there it was hanging from a tree limb minus strings. She got so ticked off with various problems that she decided to turn it into a bird house. So far after 6 weeks in the tree no birds have moved in, but there is bird crap all over it." |
I really dont believe the reviews but i find using a guitar in the ways the users have used very resourceful and entertaining. 12/16/2005 5:04:27 PM |

he's not blind.. is he?
I know he got into a car wreck and couldn't play for like 15 years... but I'd never heard that he was blind 12/16/2005 8:06:03 PM |

but everything I know about him is from watching that damn infomercial, and that commercial he is in now. 12/16/2005 9:03:33 PM |

I had doubts about such a cheap guitar when I saw it too. It DID sound great when he played it though. 12/16/2005 11:05:00 PM |
