Hondo guitars are about as good as, and worth about the same as the dump you just took in your toilet.

while some may think of hondo a cheap, the early models (70's-early 80's) were well crafted. I have a '76 Explorer reissue from gibson and a early 80's VIP series explorer from hondo and both play equally well. The hondo came with dimarzio pickups and the dealer added a kahler brass trem setup. The gibson is a little lighter than the hondo and as the original owner of both I can say they have aged equally well and both play great today. The hondo even came with a hsc that was better form fitted than the factory gibson case I must say.

i dunno, i bought my fame series 763 for 80 bucks, and have played the s**t out of it for 14 years, and it still kicks ass. and i mean, ive beaten the crap out of it, the neck is still straight after everything too.

That's not entirelytrue. The Hondo guitars made in the second half of the seventies were pretty nice for the price.
