This is a real gem.  For those of you unfamiliar with the name Samick, they are one of the largest manufactures of guitars in the world.  If you own a guitar made in Korea the odds are it was made by Samick, regardless of the name on the guitar.  They also have factories in several other eastern countries (but not China).  In fact, if you own a Korean Epiphone Les Paul... well, you get the idea.

This is an update to my 2000 review of my Samick Artist series LP. I have 4 guitars now. Fender Tele Thinline (hot customized - voodoo pups), 2005 Samick AV4, A very hot custom strat (also voodoo pups, and a 2005 Gibson 333. I still love my LP 450. I upgrade the bridge pup (5 years later). I now have a bright Dimarzio bucker in the bridge. Just what I needed. 10 for all the features my guitar already had andI still love. samick lp-450
