it's almost impossible to fault an American made guitar of such good build quality and materials at this price.I own a T-60' T-30 a T-40 bass and my patriot. They all are awesome instruments.I have guitars in my collection that I've paid thousands of dollars for and my peavey's hang with the best of them.They even are better in many ways..Hey, for the price, go pick up a few,you'll fall in love.

I have had this guitar since 87. It came with a custom molded case that kept it away from my kids most of the time. It has held up well over the years and served me well. It's hard for me to stop playing it even thought I have since purchased 5 other guitars since then. I can't let it go, it is just too good to me. Mine is flat black. I could not figure out why it would not polish up until I figured out it was flat, not gloss.....
