Welcome


In 1987, I bought my first electric guitar, it was a Series A. A Jackson copy.
Two months later I started a band ! 

My best friend got himself a Series A bass, black short scale precision copy.
We were in heaven !!!

It is really hard to find information about this brand, so I decided to create a blog about those guitars.

My goal is to find more informations about the history of those guitars.

What I know is that it was distributed by 
Kief Music LTD in Surrey, BC, Canada.

It was made in Korea, in the Samick Factory

So far, we know that this brand was a canadian brand importing most of its guitars from Samick in Korea. The multiples headstock shapes, some stickers on guitars, and most of the models were Samick’s models. 

So 30 years later, we finally know where those guitars came from. They are not top of the line but they are lasting for over 30 years now, and they were made by a well known factory.

Samick did Hondo, Vantage, Westone, Series 10, Series A, and I'm sure, a lot of other brands.

The blog is here to share informations about those instruments, so, if you have any information, please feel free to share it with us ! Nothing here is 100% sure, but if we get all those informations that we have together, it will make a lot of informations. 

Thanks to all contributors,
