Les Paul Ultra Factory

Just bought a LP ULTRA and it has a made in Korea sticker. I thought all LP's were made in China. What else is made at this factory and how does the quality compare? It has a great sound and feel so far, light weight and fast neck.
Thanks in advance.

I've owned an Epi Les Paul standard and a Sheraton ll, both made in Korea. Also a Washburn and an Ibanez also made in Korea. The Epi's were well made and very nice guitars, except for the electronics: p/u switch and pots. Korea is putting out a ton of guitars. I read somewhere in these forums that Kaman is actually making them for Epiphone.

It's Samick, not Kaman.

Samick. I thought I'd gone completely loco there for a minute, Kaman does make guitars, just not these. Thanks
