But that's the whole point though isn't it? Cosmetically, the manufacturer would want the fake to pass off as original as convincingly as possible.

QUOTE(finalzz @ Sep 29 2010, 09:22 PM) honestly, i'd rather have a noob guitarist showing off his brand new fake fender than a real one. it hurts me to see such an incompetent player playing such a well built guitar... still, seasoned players occasionally can't tell the difference between a fake and an original. for me, i can't tell the difference between a fake and real fender, maybe i could feel and hear the difference. true.idiots with brilliant guitars are such a waste. bagi kite je lar...

Brader, you said it yourself, you would rather have a noob guitarist showing off brand new fake fender than a real one, so its ok la, its only 750 and its fake summore, not saying the guy is noob, but i believe somebody trusting MIA fender worth 750 must be a real beginner, later in life he will discover the truth, but i'm looking at the bright side, at least he got himself a guitar and can start playing thus improving. Unless he bought it to show off, that is another case la

If anyone spend few thousand for a fake fender i really pity him cos he didn't know it's fake stuff. But in this case, I think he knew it's fake but still wan to buy. Spend Rm750 for a fake MIA fender, it's still better than spending few thousand for a fake fender right? People just don't want to spend the few k money but want it anyway. There's even grades in fake stuff, A grade, AA grade, AAA grade... a lot of people can't tell the different of the fake stuff or original. Sucks that people fooling like that, both seller and buyers. I highly doubt fake guitars will stop producing when the demand is so great. Added on September 30, 2010, 4:16 pmIt's like fake bags, fake LV, Gucci etc.. Too many fakes in the market, somehow people know it's fake but still willing to buy it because of the logo. Until you carry a original LV, people will thought it's fake one. Haiz..
