This is indeed a Golden Era for guitars, way more good reasonably priced instruments than 20 years ago, and yes guitars built all over the planet.
I have yet to play an import that, to my ears, equals a higher end Martin/Bourgeois/Santa Cruz/Collings but, to be fair, they would probably have to cost a lot more just as these guitar do. And it may be true as Wade said that the true high end Asian guitars "stay at home".
The bottom line is there now are many good choices, play what your ears like and pockets can afford, and don't worry if the other guy/gal likes something else.
Hyundai was not very well respected when they first came out, now they have earned market acceptance and moved up the food chain, they proved themselves. That doens't mean that folks who buy Mercedes/BMW/Audi/Jaguar are wasting their money. Different strokes....
