Bit of a rant

[GrandmaShreds]

So after buying my Westcreek, I was wondering why other budget brands like Epiphone (and others) don't offer stainless steel frets? I mean, Westcreek can offer a killer guitar with SS frets for a fraction of the cost of a high end Epiphone, and the Epi's usually come with bad fretwork that shouldn't have left the factory. Is it laziness on behalf of the manufacturer?

It’s like Firefly. Better quality than Epi, at a fraction of the price. SS frets. Better fret work with round ball end frets.
