My vote for best L5 copy is A Gibson L7. It’s an L5 minus the bling. I’ve got a ‘57 that has a floating Lollar p/u. Killer axe.

thanks PG for the reply..I should have titled it under $1500.00...I just received this Samick Artist Series HJ650 from a Guitar Center in California for $499.00 and 23 bucks shipping..couldnt be happier and came with a near perfect..TKL hard case..the guitar seems to have been tucked away in the case since 1996 ..

Wow, Dayne, that sounds like you made a killer score on that one! Looks and sounds good .....though of course i DO have to carp about one thing. No.................... NOT your tuning (hahahaha i hope you can laugh at that harmlessly intended joke!)....that's just fine! :D

But duuuuuude....you GOTTA lose some of that 'verb so people can hear what the guitar sounds like! Cheers.

I have several guitars, and I also own a Samick dreadnaught.
Back when I bought it, 10-15 years ago, it was about $320.
It's got a great, full sound, and I've gigged with it and played that in public hundreds of times.
.
I like playing it still, even though I have 2 guitars which are more expensive, an 8-string Ibanez and a 12 String Guitar.
Just to put things in perspective, I also have a second 12-string on backorder ($1700).
And I've been playing Guitar since 1972.
Anyway, the 8-string Ibenez cost me something like $420, about 5 years ago.
They stopped making it, and I've turned down 9-10 offers to sell it.
Last week I turned down an offer of $1200 for that ibenez.
I wonder how much the 'Samick D5CE, Worthington' is worth now?

@ RhythnMan2
I think many Samicks up until 1998 were made at Peerless factory in Korea..I bought the HF650 first and 2 days later saw this HJ650 for sale used market at Guitar Center in Caif..the case is like new and 200.00 plus new..if I were loaded I think Id splurge on an ES-5 Gibson
@ Planetguy here is a few seconds again on the busking amp my CoolMusic BP40D this time with reverb at 2-1/2 and delay at 2
