15 years ago Taylor Guitars - a major American maker Jeff - made 25 guitars from
the pallets at the loading dock.  They sold them for $10,000, when you could get
a good Taylor for $1,200.  They sound OK, but even my guitars sound OK.

Not to mention the papier-mache (paper mashay) guitar made 100 years ago that
also sounded OK
