                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[You can safely ignore most reviews on Harmony-Central, espescially those of cheaper guitars. The vast majority of Squiers, Staggs, Richwoods, Agiles and the likes are bought by beginning guitar players. And in general beginning guitarists are totally unable to properly compare the difference, plus they always love their own stuff best.<br><br>And if you read reviews, ignore the ratings and read what they say. If the rating is super low, is the critique justified? For example, you can give a Squier strat a '1' for features because it has only three pickups or a '10' for the very same reason. Neither review would tell you much. Look for construction errors, action measurements, maybe links to soundclips. Also read what other stuff they have, what they compare it with and how long they have been playing. If you follow these rules you'll hopefully will end up with a few proper reviews. Read them, remember what they said, go to a store and see if you agree.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Actually, I think you've found a really great seller, according to my Ebay criteria:<br><br>- A Power Seller with over 50,000 sales!!<br>- A phone number is listed, and it's toll free<br>- It looks like they have a physical store<br>- Appropriate shipping costs<br><br>Unfortunately, the guitar manufacturer has mixed ratings on Harmony Central. There's no listing for the Les Paul, but here's some for their other guitars:<br><br>DON'T BUT THIS GUITAR. EVEN IF YOU ARE POOR. SAVE, SAVE, SAVE AND BUY SOMETHING DECENT. <br><br>I have been so impressed that I am strongly considering putting some money down on a titan les paul double cut copy. <br><br>this is NOT at all a guitar for someone looking for a decent guitar for the money - it is not. One would be far better off with one of the cheap-o squiers or lp juniors.]]></content:encoded>
