Murder Soul can only hope to improve
Why are a good number of asian guitars made in the same plant?

I just find it ironic that Dean and Ibanez use the same Korean factory, from what I've heard. What other companies do this?

Almost all Korean-made guitars come out of only two major factories, from what I understand. They simply build to order for the various guitar companies, including Ibanez, Schecter, ESP, Gibson, Dean etc. etc.

As far as I remember, Ibanez have like 4 factories in Korea and you can tell by reading off the letter on the back of the headstock?

W = World factory
C = Cort
S = Samick
P = something?

My RGT is made in CP though...
