Holy macaroni Mudfuzz, 10k posts!

Ok thanks dudes, I kinda thought so. But seriously, it's been so long since I bought a guitar, and prices are stupidly inflated in Sweden, so I honestly had no idea if it coulda been legit.

To add further, they don't actually use the brand names, the site is less than a year old, and they're based out of Hong Kong.

most of these sites use stock/"borrowed" photos though, so I wouldn't bet on whatever shows up on your doorstep looking exactly like it. :no:
