Samick Factory - Korea

Now I think we have enough evidence 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.

According to Samick WIKI, here are the brands that Samick worked on :
