This video shows Cor-tex guitar manufacturing facility in China.... some interesting methods for mass guitar production.

At 8:02 in the video, there is a quick display of Ovation soundboard top color codes, also. So, this factory makes the Chinese Ovations? The video narrative says Cor-Tek Dalian has 200 "partnering" companies involved in their operations, probably to include all their source suppliers, too.
And, there is no indication of molded-back body guitars in their catalog.

They have factories in China, Korea and Indonesia. Among other brands, they manufacture for Ibenez, G&L, PRS and Squire.

So, Cor-Tek is the "500-pound-gorilla", eh?
