You won't find them in the US market, at least yet. It's a "Baldwin Talent by Gibson" made in China for the Asian market. Overstock.com was blowing out Talent LP copies for under $100 late last year. It's a starter line.

Talent Typegraphical is the magnum opus of the humanism design of Gibson, Talent make special plot on mainly 4 type of guitar shapes in order to close to the youth nowadays.

Wow... I don't know what to say to that.  (Yes, I know it was an auto-translator.  At least I hope it was.)

So if Epi is MiM, than this is Squier?

I kinda like it. But 299 american peso are too much, I think.

Over here, the "Maestro by Gibson" sold by Amazon and BestBuy is the Squier equivalent. The Talent by Baldwin is probably at the same level or less.
