Where is this guitar manufactured? What type of warranty does it have? How does it compare to Martin, Teton or Seagull?

Made in China. You have the FENDER ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENT LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY. In my opinion, these are better sounding than the Seagull or Teton acoustics. The Martin guitars are a step above the Fenders acoustics. Thanks Jason.

I can't tell you the manufacturer. It is made in China. I did a lot of research, and many people said it was at least a $500 value. I have one and the cosmetics are great. It has a nice finish, and has a nice sound for a beginner or someone who likes the tone. I have started a tune on mine, so to speak on mine. There are instructions on the internet, telling how to improve the quality and volume of the resonator. The electronic pickup of my model is said to be impressive. Read articles on building a Resonator Guitar and ideas will come to you. I really think these are introductory prices, and the price will be much more someday. Dale I can't tell you the manufacturer.

I've long since lost my info on the warranty. However, I've traveled to several countries with this case being chucked around with the luggage, mailed it internationally twice, and I've had it for about 2 1/2 years now. Still works perfect and the guitar has never been damaged inside.

It is made in Mexico under Martin direct supervision and quality control. The nut and saddle are Tusq and the bridge pins, I would guess, are plastic (easy to replace with a better quality pin for about $5.

the one I purchased was excellent, and it had the GREAT sound you expect from any Gibson guitar. It souns so great that I rarley use the electric component. I have also a sj200 and an advanced jumbo; all three have different sounding, but you cannot go wrong with a Hummingbird, and it is a beautiful guitar.

China...I was skeptical when I got the guitar, but the action is great and it plays smoothly. I think it's a real bargain...but you may get one made on a Monday!

Unfortunately, like most guitars under $1,000 .... good ole china. I think several years ago they were made in Washington state. That being said, for a $300 guitar, quality is very good. On my guitar the frets were "dressed" (i.e. they were filed close to the fretboard edges so they did not have sharp pieces cutting my palm or fingers (versus many &lt; $1000 guitars need their frets filed (on the side only) before they are played)). The tuners are 14:1, non-branded, and perform like a 14:1 Grover; the guitar stays in tune remarkably long. The solid maple neck/body is finished very well. The fingerboard looks like a rosewood and is smooth and feels good to my fingertips. After 4+ years there is no fade-thru of the fingerboard finish (hinting that it is true rosewood and not a stained whitewood).

Yes, it is made in the USA. I am very happy with the one I purchased. The 23 1/2" scale makes it great to play. I do believe that all Gibson guitars are made in the USA and that their "Epiphone" by Gibson guitars are made overseas.

guitarguy , I recieved my Korean RL-4 late last month . It had inspection tags dated 4/12/2005! Although the Samick box looked like it was accosted by a grizzly bear, the guitar itself was pristine and obviously never handled. Seeing that Amazon has (had?) only one more, I might assume they were from the same batch, although this assumption has no guarantees , of course. If not to your satisfaction (wink, wink), who could fault you for returning a 9 year old guitar . If it's in the same shape as the one I recieved, I'm sure you'll be thrilled !! Be sure to let me know ....

I'm sorry, but I really can't speak to the warranty. I've been quite happy with this guitar and I've needed no repairs.

I don't know. Google it. The boy's teacher says this is a great guitar for the money. We've had no problems. Sounds so much better than the cheep steal string acoustic he has.

You cannot get a made in the USA guitar at anywhere near this price and haven't been able to in a LONG time. This is cheap, even for China. For something with good quality at a reasonable price look for something made in Korea eg PRS SE (Paul Reed Smith; Student Edition). A PRS guitar Made in USA is in the thousands.
