I always kick myself in the ass for not seeing posibilities coming.

Dang I could have bought a couple and made triple my money back after a couple years.

I gotta pay more attention to who is setting up who for a windfall investment.

VanStal, China, cheaply made parts hmmm......anybets on how long they have to go before going all the way to the "remember them" file?

Then again I still get the laugh of the year out of this! It is too funny, just too funny.

look at how guitars evolved. Now you have fenders made in Japan, Mexico and pay a premium for ones made in the US. How long before VS outsources their customer service too? You'll be explaining to some guy in India on why your drag is not working.
I love my VS, but this really, really lame.

Actually my Mexican made Telecaster plays better than the American made one. Just had to round off the fret edges and bingo she really burns.
