    Default Sparrow LP Goldtop

    Anyone know anything about Sparrow Guitars or have experience playing their instruments? I am really enamored by their LP copy (RatRod).

    Here in Germany, Musik-Produktiv sells them and from what I heard thourhg their sales guy the guitars are better than average qualitywise. They also got some very nice designs.

    There are a couple of dealers in Canada and the bodies are made in Korea/china. You can customize them quite a bit and The are supposed to be better than an Epi. The Street price on the mid lp is about the same as an Epi Standard. I have seen a couple in the stores, but never played them.
    I bought a gold top from China and after a fret level it is a lovely playing guitar.
    These have the full sized pots and Kent Armstrong pickups which I think are MIC as well. Sorry I stand corrected.
    Interesting. Dong Ho Electronics makes the pickups in Korea, and some of the other industries associated with this manufacturer are LG, and Samsung.
    The Blues is alright!
