Man, lots of good info..... Granted I'm not much of a player, but I would rather own something of value rather than a something I'll hate in 6 mos. I guess for comparison, you can buy a Remington 870 at Wal-mart for $250. It goes boom, but what a load of junk. I'd rather buy an older used model that has better wood and metal than that new mess they sell now. So any "gun" guys here get where I'm coming from. My current guitar is a Washburn D-10. No Martin by any stretch, but decent as far as I'm concerned. I thought for a solid top it was a good deal and I like the way it plays and sounds.

Sounds like quality may not be as big of an issue as I thought it would be. Clearly Fender is making guitars in Mexico to be at a certain price point, but it doesnt sound like there are many complaints. As for those Highway Ones, and Squiers, haven't really looked at them yet.
