Barf.  Korean Squiers and Chinese Bullets are plywood bodied crap not even 
made by Fender.  Don't get me wrong... they're excellent student guitars, as 
good or better than any Fender copies made by other companies such as Samick 
(Aria, Hondo, Marathon, Washburn), Cort (Kramer, Hohner), or Saehan 
(Applause, Ovation, B.C.Rich, Celebrity, Fernandes, Westone)... but they are 
not anywhere NEAR the quality or playability of even the cheapest Mexican 
models (which are truly made BY Fender).  The Mexican Squiers use solid 
bodies (I believe poplar), and basically the same hardware used by Leo and 
CBS in the '60s.
C-ya! Rich
