Mike, you are making this too easy and tempting. What a beauty...and oh, so affordable.
Best of luck,
Duncan

This guitar, like all Ravenwest guitars, are made in Korea by one of those factories that makes them for a lot of different companies. You can probably find similar guitars made by the same people with other brand names.

These Korean companies make the same basic guitars for all their clients, but they customize every order to to what each specific client wants. You may find a very similar guitar with a different name on the headstock, but there will be differences between the different brands, and some will be better than others. What distinguishes Ravenwest from some other companies is that the owner orders the best materials and the finest quality the factory offers.

BTW I'm selling this so I can upgrade my 2 steels to the 24&1/4 inch necks and fretboards. I will soon be very reluctantly selling my green MSA classic, as well as some other things to cover the cost of the upgrades.

You don't need to convert your steels to 24 1/4" scale - just tune 1/8 tone sharp and you will enjoy the same increased string tension and sustain! :lol:

Mike, I'm getting close to saying "wrap it up". I have to go to some hippie-type gathering this weekend, but if none of these fine people snap it up...we'll talk.
Your Friend in Florida,
