I was updating my signature... When listing my guitars, is my Ultra 2171-1 a USO?
Or should I list it with Celebrities and my other import stuff?

It may need a category all of its own: Hybred. ;)

My business sense is that Ultra is actually built in Asia. The marketing term "assembled in the USA" probably means they assemble the battery into the pre-amp and assemble the guitar into the case.

Why would they actually assemble the guitar in the US when they can do it in Asia so much cheaper? If your answer is "to build in US quality", think again because Balladeer and Std Elite for higher end models than the Ultra yet are now completely built in Asia.

Truth is, if it's a decent guitar and you like it, then it doesn't matter one rats ass where it was made.

Preach it, Toby! (I really like the "assembly" part) :D
