				| 
 |  
				| Another one for the musicians in SK: 
 What do you think the going rate for a Mosrite or sound-alike/knock off is in SK?
 
 Medium-sized amp and basic distortion pedal prices?
 
 I can�t bring my guitar with me. It�s  - um unique and would be troublesome with customs (it has nails through it and is customized in a spooky way � plus it�s time for me to get a new one and not bringing it would give me an excuse to just do that).
 
 Any guesstimates would be appreciated.
 
 
 Cheers,
 
 Joe

				| The Korean brand with the best reputation is Cort. You can get a good super-strat Cort in Nakwon for 300,000. Pretty good guitar. 
 I never priced the amps here but anything Korean made will be cheap enough.

				| Mosrites tend to go for over a grand (new) here. I think they ceased making them, then Semmi (sic?) died and his family started in with making them. Need to be special ordered. 
 They have a delicious trebely crunch to them when played fuzz and a sweet twang when played fairly clean: exactly what I�m looking for.
 
 2.5 million. Hmmmm. Special ordering one from overseas and shipping it to SK and then paying the tariff would render the price higher (in the US they�re about 2 million won) so� I also don�t want to travel to Sk with one, but could easily leave with one� Hmmmm.
 
 
 Thanks for the input - it's appreciaed!
 
 Cheers,
 
 
 Joe

				| I have some old crybabys and if I knew I could re-sell a Martin D-28 for a profit, I'd buy one and bring it over to sell when my contract starts next month.  Think it would work? |  |
