@joebucci3408 "butter" is simply the best word for it. The way they set them up at AIO is sublime.

@randymiles-j1w it's been a great guitar, and I've gotten a few more. T We got the relic strat, and it is perfect, but that's supposed to have cosmetic issues ;P

@ haha! That’s great to hear man. I’m actually about to pull the trigger on the walnut super Strat. After playing a few. I’m a fan. Glad you found you like them. 🤘

@randymiles-j1w i have 40-50 guitars in my class of all different models and brands. A few high end guitars, and ill always pull out the AIO les paul and PRS style one to play. They are butter. Best value guitar out there from what I've found, even though the market has been flooded with a ton of new guitar makers over the last decade

@ haha that’s awesome. They definitely give the big guys a run for their money. I love the guitar market today. When I started learning, budget guitars were unplayable for the most part. I really enjoy playing all these “budget” brands and finding the hidden gems.

@randymiles-j1w 💯

@@MrJohnnyDistortion AAA flame maple veneer, yes sir

@UnlimitedPotentialMusic I assumed as such for that price.

@ronyeahright9536 a 14 year old student of mine, bought the relic strat, and it's a beast of a guitar. She's recorded an EP and done live gigs with it over the past year. Sounds and looks amazing for the price. It's a forever guitar that doesn't disappoint

@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic excellent.....thanks for replying, and congrats on your student!

@ronyeahright9536 thank you :))) olivia dangel on iTunes and spotify and she plays in the Sarasota FL area

@donwade-di8ny I do my own setups for myself and the kids, and it's simply a youtube video away from learning the steps, but it does take a few guitars to perfect it for sure and I think some people just don't want to mess with learning it and doing it. In my area, Sarasota, FL, they charge up to $250. It's crazy.

@fender.munoz7 right on. The LP is still my go-to guitar, and it's been banged up but still looks beautiful

@@methatlovescats3602 its not amazing

@@andrewmacaller rock on 🤘

@@moGear6253 wow. Would love to see a pic

@johnpublic976 thank you! These guitars are great but after a few years using them I would only change the pickups

@@PaulZimmerman-t4k absolutely. It's been a great guitar

@Ziggy-gh7bc good call. I've been playing the PRS version this week a lot with my students and the pickups do really well, but I've been wanting something that screams a bit more, and I appreciate your comment because i was considering swapping them out... but why. It's a great feeling and great looking guitar that plays well, and I still like it a lot.

Sweet would love to hear it when it's done

Sweet. How many other guys do they have now, I wonder?

Awesome man. It's done pretty good in my classroom this year. I'm concerned with the neck but it's held up well with a lot of hard use

Ok sweet. Ty

I had someone come by and fix them. I just checked. They must have done what you mentioned. I just learned a new thing. Thank u!

@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic Awesome brother, glad it helped⚡Keep Rockin⚡

Awesome, man! It's crazy, most of my students are into 80-90's rock. It's definatley the good stuff and the next generation is noticing. Well... most girls are into Billie Eilish, but that's fine :P our Vocalist jumped in last second, and spot on with the range comment. We did it in the original key because transposing was out of the question for them. It would be much better for her to match a key for her female vocal. The instrumentalists are 14 and on year 1.5 playing. Very proud of them and appreciate the feedback brother

Except The Warning's cover from 11 years ago when they were toddlers!

Johnathon! What's up buddy. There is a 12 year old working hard to beat your Paganini solo (level 16) right now. He made the same deal with me you did about focusing on 16 and skipping the other levels.... and he is sounding good, watch out! I got some F1 oil to work into all the fretboard and that seems to be doing pretty well. Good call on coconut oil, that sounds booshi ;P.

j o h n n y b o y

Spot on. Cheers 🍻

Nice! One thing I've noticed in the studio epiphone SG is how easily the neck bends. Try holding body with picking hand and pull back one chord hand while playing a chord. It's close to a whammy bar bend :P

Right on, the only kicker is this neck material

No money back, but when I reached out to them, they offered me some money off of the next purchase. If it was bad enough, possibly a money back deal. It's still a small shop so it's easy to communicate with them. I would say the only similarity between the AIO and the PRS SE is the body shape and great setup. I've played a PRS SE model and prefer it over the AIO (at least the one I played) for the pickups and overall build quality. The fingerboard/fret work/action is fantastic on both, but the PRS electronics are a bit better. The SE costs more, but I think the cost is exactly at the amount of value per dollar to buy either one and be satisfied according to the budget. If you have the 300-500 dollars more for the PRS SE, I would get that one, personally.

Ok, good call. I look for some shims. I know what you're talking about with that. I'm not sure how it will work, but I'll try it out, and im sure I'll be able to figure it out. I'll definalty look for that if I buy a guitar in person. Most guitars I buy are online, so it's hard to check.

@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic Most people will buy online. When I get an guitar in 9 of 10 about everything is loose and sloppy made. I am the one to check and sort things out that is it or else that guitar will soon start to fall a part. After some 30 guitars of different brands I know all about it. If one will put 1000 bucks on the table or more only then things starts to turn for the better.

@stevepelham9010 right on. For my class guitars, it just becomes a teachable moment to help someone learn how to fix it. I'll definitely be fixing the pods with the students and have them do it after I ruin a few guitar pods trying :P. For my personal guitars, I will only buy something I pick up and play from now on. I've learned from personal experience and from TH-cam reviews how important it is to buy something that feels good in person and that every guitar, even the same make and model, is different. I got 30 fender acoustics for my students, and 3 of them, after 5 years, are the only ones of the same make I actually like to play.

Which fender acoustics did you get and what do you think of them? My wife is looking at the fa15 i think ​@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic

Yay! The man, the myth, the legend. Boom baby 💥 the classroom got stocked, so I took the blue one home with me. Only guitar that has survived having some sort of breakage thus far :P

@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic Loved the kids playing at the end. Definitely Metallica fans! Yeah, I had TH-cam on auto play and I was setting up a guitar. I suddenly heard my name and I was like "What?" Lol. Thanks man. You have an awesome channel.

Haha sweet thanks man

WRONG CHANNEL

oh by the way, some websites say its a mahogany body, other websites say its a poplar body + mahogany veneer. would be insteresting see if sanded down to spec the actual wood.

Been slammed busy but will try before end of year. Good call

@rmkk89 After having this guitar for a few months, the neck is very fragile. When my students are done using it, I'll take a look at the woods being used. I've never held a guitar that the neck bends as easily as this one. You can basically bend the neck and use it as a whammy bar with little effort.

I have fixed the wiring and did a setup on all 4. They are playing great, a student brakes one again :P

After adjusting the truss rod just a bit, the intonation was spot on. Good call! Definitely plausible it was shipping temperature adjustment

glad to help.@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic

Wow, this review sounds amazing. I'm gonna check these out for sure th-cam.com/video/DPciG2UaLl0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U8YdqWos3deAcmdo I check it out on Amazon and it's 220 bucks. I'm gonna get one because the description is what does it for me. The AIO's go through the guitar before they send it out, and I'm sure the JET sellers don't do as thorough job but the description (pasted below) gives me hope it will come ready to play "What does the Standard Setup of our guitars include? We understand the importance of receiving a guitar that's ready to play. That's why, at Kairon Guitar Store, we take care of those final details that manufacturers might overlook. We go the extra mile to ensure that the guitar reaches the end customer in perfect condition. For this reason, we visually inspect the entire instrument, searching for any detail that shouldn't be there. We check the tuning pegs, electronics, pickups, neck, frets, string height, pickup height, and intonation. We pay attention to every detail of your new guitar so that it arrives in perfect condition. Please note that this setup is standard, and if you'd like something more customized, we recommend taking it to your luthier who can make adjustments based on your specific instructions."

I'll check them out.

They’re not terrible issues, but for a company that prides it’s set ups, I was let down.

Was it recent (within the past few months)?

@@UnlimitedPotentialMusic I got it in may of this year.

@nateb.4959 At some point, quantity always gets the best of quality. I hope this isn't the case, but maybe. Sorry about how yours was set up

Ah! Good call

this video made me scared to buy the GRX70QA. Do you think I should still consider buying the guitar?

Yeap

Yes, sir. The old proverb, "You get what you pay for," holds true on this one. After I set this guitar up, I bet it will be a pretty sweet beginners guitar. But if someone pays to have that done, they could be in it for 300+ dollars, and there are a lot more options in that price range.

They are who many known and entrepreneurial guitar retailers are using, so you got a point. Spot on
