Sounds like a good song, but I'm trying to figure out is that a chibanez (fake jem) he's playing? lol.... Sounds not too bad.. I can't make it out.

maybe my eyes have given up on me

Re: chibanez?


They suck.

Aside from the ethical issues of them being illegal to make, buy or sell they are made with 100% inferior parts, and made with the sole intention of ripping people off.

ok...thanks for getting back to me. few more questions.
the parts:
are they not the diMarzio pickups? do they sound ****ty? how is the overall sound? do you know first hand? is the "floyd rose" not a floyd rose? just a ****ty copy? the neck?
i assume these are all chinese knockoffs, similar to when you buy a fake Rolex on the streets of New York City.
I ask because I have a friend who I work with who is looking to buy one of these, and I am trying to tell him that it's a ripoff, but he is blinded by the low price and the overall look of the guitar.

thanks again...i appreciate your feedback.
