This guitar crossed my path about a week ago, and as things tend to happen, it followed me home. Since having the Orpheum, the whole slope-shoulder thing has been with me, and a smaller, 12-fret, slot-head guitar has been something I've been looking out for.
So, it's a Wechter TO-8428, which is a clone of the Martin 000-28VS, pretty much. And, put up right next to the Martin for an A-B comparison, it is VERY close in all counts, except cost. All solid woods, good hardware, beautiful build quality, and a nice case, too. Supposedly made in China, but actually there's nothing on the guitar to indicate it's origin.
Anybody else have any experience with these?
