Le seul truc qui me tarabuste c'est la découpte/assemblage/peinture en Chine, pas du 100% MIJ quoi, mais bon, si ça sonne
Ouai c'est vrai, on le dit pas assez souvent sur les Edwards.
Mais je pense que c'est pour ça qu'on a des specs de ouf : corps 1 pc, long tenon, micros seymour... pour si peu cher.
Info de chez Richtone :
Are Edwards Guitars Made In Japan?
Technically and officially – yes. Edwards guitars are classified as being made in Japan by ESP.
Here’s the email from ESP Japan with the official line on the production of Edwards guitars..
“We are using our China factory building bodies & necks for Edwards products. We have 5-6 Japanese craftsmen work there to do main works and to do total quality control, and using Chinese workers to assist them with simple jobs like sanding, buffing etc. Then, they are sent here at Tokyo factory and assembled by same assembling guys who also works on ESP. And, all these makes us possible to have Edwards products in that “Edwards” price range with high quality level close to match ESP level.
We make Edwards bodies in our own factory in China under Japanese level quality control and complete them in Japan with using parts from US, Japan and Korea. We technically could say it’s ”made in Japan” with considering the bodies & necks as parts. And, I judged we say “it’s made in Japan” with considering the importance of final assembling process in the musical instruments.”
On profite du travail à "pas cher" de nos voisins chinois, on fait tourner une économie qui finie par nous faire mal, comme ça on touche des grattes à 1000€ alors que faites aux US elle serai plutôt à 2000€.
