I've never heard a "Samick" brand Samick, but probably something else by them (they ghost build a lot). Co-worker has a lot of respect for them...so I took a chance...

Gretsch Electromatics are also fairly reasonable for a full-hollowbody guitar.

Electromatics are very fairly priced and sound and feel great and are a fantastic platform for upgrading

Or, just hunt carefully on eBay . . . . i got a 67 Dble Anniversary for $800
