im sure he got it from asheligh music. the indian guy guitar store. i tried the santa fe guitar before and i thought it sounded ok. i once bought a guitar from there. not sure the brand but it was a strat copy. transparent red. i change the 3 pickup to dimarzio hs3 and it change the whole guitar in terms of soundwise.. the quality of the construction is not bad too... but then again, like i said before, if u have the cash$$$, get something more expensive and better.

Santa Fe - not too bad for it's price range... def betta than some other competitor guitars e.g TGM, Symphony, Samick etc.
Body is basswood not ply wood - sum copies I had were poplar. Body thickness were slim - just like the afinity squier strat. Hard ware average - just like other copy oriental strats. PUPS - average. + point for me was the medium jumbo frets - most other cheapo axes have small / vintage frets.
Verdict - for newbies or DIY enthusiats ok but if you have $ to upgrade..then do so...
BTW I had a few b4 and souped it up with emg, seymos, DiMarzio etc with better tunin heads & they served me fine for pub use. 8)

nop.. its not because the guy said so.. i have some experience in the wood industries.. from my experience, i dont think basswood look like that.. but then again, i may be wrong as i didnt strip the body of the paint to check what it really is... just my 2cents worth.. but at least its not plywood stacked together...
