    Default Ocean Bottom Custom Guitars...??

    A really cool and good sounding Strat. The guy wants 300 for it. It's light and plays great. It's left handed and I'm right handed...looks just like a Hendrix guitar too. That creamy color with a beautiful maple neck. Question is, I've never heard of them. It says Made in USA on it. Didn't know if anyone here has ever heard of such a company. Thanks.

    Never heard of them - most likely a small builder.

    Never heard of them and can't find anything about them.

    I definitely wouldn't buy it for resale, but it might be great as a regular player if it's built well...

    Lol...weird. I've looked all over for them as well. Oh well...300 bucks isn't bad for a great looking, playing and sounding Strat that was custom made in the USA. Guess I'll take a chance.

    Fixed.

    But hey, if it's a great guitar and you like it, who cares about anything else?

    There is no way to verify the claim 'Made in USA' is true.

    That's rather pessimistic, but I have seen many times 'made in USA....assembled in Mexico', not on guitars though. It is probably made and assembled in the USA

    how did the guitar work out? (it was a few weeks back)

    I can tell you all about that guitar, if you are interested. Also have pix of it being built.
