Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone could help me id this guitar, it has no serial no as far as I can tell, where is it made as well? I heard it is a pre artist series, is it anything special?

i went to the site.
if its pre-artist series then its korean.
the artist series are also korean, which are beautifully made guitars.
the samick factory then made the epiphones, and being samick of cos paid more attention to detail and quality to their own brand than epiphone.

interesting, so its worth something at least? Im not a humbucker so I cant really tell its value lol, are these collectors items at all, its not stock got a seymour duncan in the bridge.

damn the site doesnt work?

thanks guys

I'm able to access the site. Beautiful guitar!

Copy the Image HTML or something like that and just paste here. Not sure about Imageshack but photobucket is pretty easy to use.

sadly, its not worth much.
the artist series in the used market now go for about 1/2 to 3/4 of the used price for a similar epiphone.
your samick will be even cheaper.

ok. damn thats no good. Epiphones are pretty expensive here 900 or so, is 400$ a reasonable price considering there is a SD pickup? I would say the quality is better than a new epi

thanks guys
