Thanks for the demo. Definitely adding this one to my list. I already own 5 Vintages. Looks like that will be 8 soon between this, the Surfmaster 90 and the Integra

nice outro jam

what were you playing through? sounds excellent.

I’ve been looking at more expensive surf style guitars but they are to well built and lack that that vibe of the guitars JUST THINKING I PRO SHOP MAYBE

Beautiful guitar perfect for the surf stuff it’s got that sound reminds me of my first guitar I ever got so much fun it was lovely playing it’s making you smile that’s great it’s not the cost but the vibe it gives you inspiration of the guitar spaghetti western

That's has real character both in looks and sound. Another brilliant bit of design from Alan.

great demo, another interesting design from the revo range.

Interesting guitar, for many reasons. You seemed to genuinely enjoy playing it! Those pup's sound killer, love the quack sound when you pulled in the middle on the bridge.

Alan This sound remember me to Duane "Twang" Eddy.Greetings.Riccardo

Nice!!! Good notes from your guitar.I'm playing guitar again Thanks so much.Merry Christmas for you.Cheers.Riccardo

Is this body the same size about like a j45

cheeky little shuffle stick - very nice

Didn't know what to expect price wise.....just followed the link, now then! I like that price. Fantastic slide at the end there.

I’m digging that!

Great vid, after 12:44 was viceral! Also, occurred to me that there seems to be a lack of 6-string banjo videos on YT, and none with overdrive, seeing as you are good with those finger picks...!!?!

Anybody know what the nut width is? That’s kinda important, I think.

Un format OM intéressant. Le rapport qualité prix a l'air bien !

I would recommend that you try perhaps the most famous Canadian acoustic guitar, the Seagull S6 Original. It has a cedar top which gives it a much warmer tone than spruce. The back and sides are made of the same Canadian Wild Cherry that is used for the Fifth Avenue. There are countless reviews of this guitar actoss YT and I do believe that you would be most interested. I have played one myself and it is pure majesty. The Godin Metropolis Classic costs about $1,100CAD while the S6 Original can be had for about $800CAD. I would say that the tone of the Seagull S6 Original is superior to that of the Godin Metropolis Classic, of course, that is only my opinon and you may disagree. Regardless, Seagull is a Godin brand and the guitars would likely be made in the same factory as the Godin Metropolis Classic (along with Simon & Patrick, Norman and also Art & Lutherie Guitars) so you can expect the same quality of components and Godin's high-level of manufacturing skill and finishing. I know for a fact that the Seagull S6 Original can be purchased in the UK and is THE quintessential Canadian acoustic guitar. Cheers!

Very nice demonstration Ben! Your playing is superb and you really bring out that guitar's voice. Absolutely top-notch! It does make me wonder though... Why doesn't Anderton's carry Godin or Seagull guitars? You can see for yourself how amazing that they are. I just find it surprising since major vendors in North America like Long & McQuade, Guitar Center and Sweetwater all carry Godin and Seagull. It would seem that the UK is missing out on a great line of instruments from the Commonwealth. Sad, really.

Great opening piece Ben. Could you give me an idea of he chords used please so I could give it a go? Cheers.

Does this fit in a regular gigbag/case ?

Way better video than the "official" demo of this guitar...

What a vibe! Could get lost in that.

I've just shared this video with my son.....he will want one of these !!!!!!!! What a great guitar

You brought some groove! Easy to see you're having a blast with this. It records really well with the round wound strings and that bass roll off. Would it soften the attack too much with flat wounds?

Thanks for explaining the bass vi vs baritone setup! I’d been looking at this one on a couple of sites and couldn’t figure out which it was 😅

Sounds killer! Do you think smaller Baritone strings would fit, or the nut would need to be replaced?

That was fun! cool whip.. Toasters?

Great work Ben and have to say you really got the best out of an interesting guitar

Bert Jansch and John Renbourn come to mind. Pentangle.

I heard this unit last week at a friend’s house and it sounded crazy good! It is a real shame it doesn’t offer the ability to switch between the 4 settings via foot switches…

Thanks… fantastic review and looks/ sounds like a fun guitar. Can I ask what it is like standing up? Is it balanced?

A bit late to the party I love the look of the blue one of these, but are the pickups to hot to get clean tones. Great playing btw

this is very very cool. i am trying to understand how envelope followers work ever since i owned a q-tron+ and put a delay in its effects loop. Do more videos like this plz

Great video, but man they are frustrating things to get used to….

I found this series so helpful! Please keep making videos in this finger picking series it was so good! Most people teach a simplified pattern but these 2 blend together a lot of techniques which I found really helpful!

Man im thinking of either this, the alvarez ag70 or the guild om 140. Someone help me!!

Truly inspired

Does anyone know the nut width/neck carve or dimensions for the super thin? I see Ben saying it's a reasonable sized neck but not sure where that lands.

i still play like a chimp holding a banana , its something ive avoided for 30ys , but thanks for the video and i will try to do a bit more

This looks and sounds great. How close you can intonate it though? I own a Vintage ICON SG which is unfortunately impossible to intonate correctly

Awesome performance! It takes a great player to make a 6-string banjo sound that good. I have one but have only played guitar for a couple years and not proficient enough to play the banjitar at the level it requires.

not bad - not at all bad,-

The great jazz guitarist Gary Sargent(Tommy Bennet) uses this guitar and it sounded AMAZING!!!! I purchased one it sounds Amazing!!!

Nice! Those filtertron-esque pups sound pretty Gretschy too. Thanks! Great playing there mate.

Very appealing review, it was like sitting across from a friend who just bought a new guitar, and is sharing his thoughts & reactions to playing it.

Would like to hear it without effects on.

Sounds great! If you could make a longer video in the style of the first 2 mins of this video that would be awesome. 🙏

Hi Ben You made an Ord thumb pick for a while ago. I totally loved it. Sorry to say I just dropped it and it broke! Just wondering if you could crank out another one. Thanks Stephen Taylor

I just picked up a new vintage vsa550 pretender. It’s a Dave grohl style guitar. A lot lot cheaper than the epiphone one at £1300. Just lowered the action and it sounds sublime. Vintage are often disregarded. Sometimes they need a little work but make for killer guitars. Watched you alot on Anderson’s. Always liked your reviews. So new subscriber here. I have 11 guitars at present and 3 are from the vintage brand. They get played as much as my Gibson or Eastman guitars. They’re great !
