Thank you

Oh gosh... I have not seen this ORIENT for such a long time, back in the 80's when MiC guitar yet to enter the market this brand was a cheaper alternative for Fender, Ibanez etc. If I am not wrong SL used to sell this brand... I think its made in Korea, and if I am not wrong this bass of yours was often called "orient orange bass" back then.

Probably those who might be interested will be those folks of 40-50 yrs... but still think its wiser for your son to keep it, he might find it a treasure once he progress on.

Just my $0.02, I might be wrong....

Thanks Kabuki,

just got back from SV Guitars, Mike told me that Orient is indeed a very old guitar, in the 70's they also produced semi hollow and les paul type. Its Korean made.

My.son is just 14, and he prefers a newer.version ones
