Martin guitars are made in Nazareth PA
The new Korean guitars are good don't buy the old though. Mexican fenders are pretty much on par with the America ones. Mexican setup is not very good though, but the quality is good. Chinese are decent they're getting there but not quite up to speed with Korean made guitars or Mexican ones. If you're going to choose one of the three, go with Korean made guitars they are great quality for a reasonable price. They are top notch these days.
the chinese. or satan himself
Personally I say takamine or martin.
Dean Guitar sells acoustic guitars. Dean Martin guitars are known in the guitar industry to be some of the finest and most skill crafted guitars made.
Absolutely yes,because RJ(Ramon Jacinto) Guitars are mostly Philippine made.A good example is the RJ Les Pu which is a brand made from Guagua, Pampanga.Also,RJ Guitars are 100% craftsmanship and not made by machinery.Guitars that are made by machine purely are really not that good but RJ branded guitars aren't like that and they give discounts every time a consumer purchases.These guitars last long.They are really the best in the Philippines!
Yes, the CPCA4 Martin guitar is made in Mexico. It is part of a series that reflects Martin's commitment to quality craftsmanship while offering a more affordable option compared to their U.S.-made models. The Mexican-made guitars maintain the high standards associated with the Martin brand.
Yes,the way to tell is the inside label.It will say C.F.MARTIN CO.They are not American made but it says martin indide
Dean has some good guitars made for beginners.

I have a Hagstrom XL-2 which is one of the discontinued newer models made in China. I've owned it for about 2 years now and I can say that it's an okay guitar. As expected, the craftsmanship isn't anywhere near top notch as the guitar came with protruding fret ends and some cracks in the finish at the neck/body joint. The stock pickups are okay but lack clarity. The hardware (tuners and bridge) are of good quality and the guitar stays in tune "relatively" well. After tinkering with the tremolo setup, I ended up just putting 5 springs effectively The bottom line is that it's a better Chinese made guitar than most but still is a Chinese made guitar. I won't be buying another one of these. ;)
