When itcomes to guitars Indonesia is the new Korea just like Korea was the new Japan.
I have one of the last Korean Ibanezes(2005) before production of mid and low end models was almost entirely moved to Indonesia, and in 2006 the Korean ones were much better in comparison.
Nowadays, after almost 15 years the Indonesian made Ibanezes caught up.
