A possible story of Ken Rose guitars is that someone got them as a present, but did not have a good teacher to set up the guitar to make learning to play it pleasure, and not pain. Thus, soon Ken Rose guitars could have found their way into the cellars, rusting away for years. If you get one, bring it back to life, straighten the neck, level and polish the frets, put new strings on, intonate, plug in, and enjoy.
