    Okay everyone, this is a three part question and points will be awarded for "best answer"!
    1. Where's the best place to buy an acoustic/electric guitar in Dumaguete? Or..
    2. If not Duma, Cebu?
    3. What is the best Philippine made acoustic guitar w/electronics?
    I look forward to your response.
    Thanks in advance and keep on chill'n!

    The only place to buy imported guitars in Dumaguete is JVS. But if you want a good local guitar maker that makes really good acoustic/electrics I'd have to ask a cousin of mine because he knows someone in cebu that makes top quality stuff and sells them at a price very competitive with lower quality imports. Were talking Martin quality for cheap :D

    Okay...Donunus gets 50 points!!!! ChiQ88 - 20 points. Thanks guys...Sorry for delay in reply. I'm in Sabah right now about to sail in the Borneo Challenge then doing some adventure sailing. Should be back your way by September. If it's all right Donunus I'll send you an email to get the details on the custom made guitars when I get closer to Dumaguete. Thanks again and remember...chill!

    Solido,

    Don't need any points. But after you cross the bridge from Cebu to Mactan, turn left and watch both sides of the road for about 2-3 km. You'll see many guitar factories on both sides of the road, some great, some average, some... well... ymmv. Just wonder around and try them out.
