    Anyone tried any of the Chinese Gibson guitars out there, often referred to as Chibson guitars?

    I love the Gibson ES 355 model they recently released that’s a clone of the one owned by Noel Gallagher, but the price is way beyond my budget, as is the case with most higher end Gibson guitars! However, I’ve seen a couple of them online at the likes of AliExpress and Alibaba for affordable prices. I know it won’t be as good as a Gibson original, so have realistic expectations, but how good are they?

    I’ve seen a few reviews saying better quality that Epiphone, close to a Gibson or Fender original, and probably in the ball park of brands like Tokai (which some people seem to prefer over Gibson guitars for the Les Paul style).

    just wondering if anyone here ever ordered or owned one? What was the quality like? And how was the ordering process etc?
