Guitar + gear reviews and lessons! Blues, rock, metal.... maybe even some jazz in good quality and informative videos. I'll always be honest in my views. My favourite artists range from Metallica to B.B. King so my taste is pretty diverse!
I'm brutally honest about gear. I'm primarily doing this as a guitar enthusiast and I will never recommend anything I personally haven't bought or would not buy myself. My opinion is my own and unbiased!

dangerous fail. i went too far this time.
Trying to make my own guitar tools to save some cash... but i think it's worth sticking to factory made with some tools. Here I'm trying to make my own 'notched straight edge' tool to help do my own guitar setups. You'll see how it turned out!

DEALBREAKER? Unboxing USED Epiphone Les Paul Special Satin E1 | This is a NIGHTMARE💀
มุมมอง 6Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Unboxing a used 'nearly new' Epiphone Les Paul Special Satin E1. It's a great little guitar, but ultimately this particular used guitar has got a fatal flaw. Would you send it back or keep it? You might still be able to buy these new at SweetWater for example if you're lucky enough to be in the USA. But they're getting rare to find new, certainly in the UK. So I was happy to get a good deal on ...

No " S" version of these that Ive seen ...Either SE. Or Core 🤔🤔
Agreed. This is an SE...
@appetiteforguitarThanx for your Answer ! Also ... Do you happen to know if they all have the brass inserts on the bridge ? Seems some do .... others don't . PS .... I think the bridge design definitely contributes to its Tone ( and of course those pickups ! ) Very unique.... " Responsive " Tone 👍👍 ( Seriously looking to buy one ) ... Pretty amazing to get Great Humbucker Tones .. along with the Hot Strat Tone it gives .. Thanx Again !! . ( Did play one at a local shop ... Excellent Neck Carve .. Wide Fat ...that description ... Sounds like an old Les Paul neck. But... I thought very comfortable to play 👌☀️
No worries, this one in the video does have the brass inserts yes. It is an excellent guitar. It's a true 'players' guitar i.e. very comfortable and all the physical design seems to have been tailored to that goal. I find the neck profile and the body contouring just spot on. I have my Fender, Gibson etc but this is the one I play most... Well this and funnily enough my Ibanez RG which is really really different to this, but is equally comfortable... if you like that sort of thing! I think you'll enjoy the PRS loads if you go for it. I won't ever be selling mine. Definitely a keeper.
I own one of these and have owned it for maybe 6 months now. It's a very nice playing and sounding guitar, especially for the price. It's a little less articulate than some other LPs I own, but it has a very nice warm tone that is appealing. The fit and finish on mine is just about perfect. I did just a little filing on the nut slots, but the frets were great and well polished (an issue I have had on many of the Epiphone guitars I have purchased). Overall, I'm impressed! The coil tapping also sounds pretty good on this guitar. Thanks for the great review! As a reminder to anyone buying these, make sure to adjust the pickup height to your liking before forming an opinion.
Thanks for the nice comment! I rate this guitar very highly for the price too. I've got a one year update video coming and I tweaked a few things to my taste... Thanks for watching and keep rocking!
Are those Seymore Duncan pickups?
Sadly not, but I think they do sound pretty great anyway. I did a sound demo here and you can decide for yourself: th-cam.com/video/QOiPLqVa-cQ/w-d-xo.html
Jeff Beck guitar god RIP Jeff 🙏 😢❤
The noise on the Yamaha is NOT typical. There is something wrong with that guitar. This comparison is between a broken budget Yamaha Pacifica and a mid range strat... And the Pacifica held it's ground. Yamaha guitars are just good guitars, ALL of them. Are they the best guitars ever created ? No, But even a budget Yamaha is a good solid guitar that get's over looked far to often.
I can only talk of my experience. I have two more Pacifica's and they all have that same noise, but they are great guitars anyway. It's not a deal breaker by any means and not something I even noticed before doing the video. It does not impact day to day playing. It's got that kind of single coil hum (despite the humbucker). There's some shielding/grounding stuff going on in these which is fixable without loads of effort I'm sure. The Yamaha is still a top cheap strat option. At some point I'll get round to identifying what's causing the issue. It's not the end of the world and I rate them highly... hence I own x3 of them. Thanks for watching and keep rocking!
This guitar was built in November of 2014 at Plant 15 in China, one of the Gibson-owned Epiphone plants there.
what models the PRS, Paul's guitar right? It's basically a custom 24-08 minus the tremolo bridge im looking at a custom 24 which seems likke it would suit me for now.
Yes, it's PRS SE Paul's guitar. All 3 of these guitars are absolutely brilliant. It really depends on what you gravitate towards most and what style you like. They are some of the top guitars in their price bracket. I did a one year update of my experience with the PRS SE Paul's guitar if you are interested: th-cam.com/video/TBXLFiXNPPc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=11pulTDZdB--szf7
Pretty much the exact 3 guitars i want. I broke my hand/fingers a couple times over the years and just looking to get back into playing. Now just deciding which one to try afford first lol. Was looking at the PRS se custom 24, Epiphone les paul custom, or a fender stratocaster; maybe the Professional II model. I would like to eventually get all 3 but not sure which one to start with
Ooh, that's a beauty. Seriously.
Thanks! Full review here if you want to see more of this beauty: th-cam.com/video/VqbIiUdB4Z4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pFUQS4r7IV0mZLVy
@appetiteforguitar Watched the full vid twice. Great guitar. That finish is coming across as midnight blue, almost black. Love it, I have a Strat that color. I noted to another viewer that your Epi LP was made in China in Nov of '14. I have a two Chinese Epi LPs and two Specials, one with P90s. They're all very good.
That's great! I rate this guitar very highly. It's fantastic value and looks, plays and sounds very nice. Thanks for watching!
These are for sale for £49 at the moment!
Wow, well spotted!! That is amszing. I'm very tempted to get more for modding. Thanks for watching and keep rockin'
Can you explain the tuner for this please
Hold the two big black buttons down on the bottom left together to put the tuner on. Hope that helps.
I have a really beautiful LTD Les type guitar that is beautiful to look at and sucked in every other way. Frets were a mess when I got it and needed to be leveled to get a good setup. I have it playing good now, but the pickups are also rubbish. Very muddy, just no life to them at all. I've tried compensating with some EQ tricks, but it's just not there. Was looking at these pickups and ordered them after watching your video. They sound musical and articulate, which is what I'm looking for, but with still enough punch at the bridge to drive an amp if playing some metal tones. Looking forward to getting them from Amazon tomorrow to see if I can finally make this guitar play as good as it looks, or at least sound as good, since it's now playing great. And it looks like they offer 2 different bridge windings, so went with the 14K output in this case.
You sound like Gordon Ramsey lol but great vid
Ha ha, thanks 😅
I’ve purchased a PAC 012 with Christmas money. Only $212. Very nice metallic blue finish. I’ve replaced the string tree guide on the head with upgraded because of bad stamped steel one hung up. It would work fine if smoothed out and lubed a bit. I replaced the machine heads with gotoh Japanese non locking. Just these two upgrades with new string and set up is the nicest under $300 Guitar I’ve owned for sure. I have a Seymour bridge humbucker on the way for the next part of this project. I love Yamaha quality standards. Nothing loose, scarred, or blemished. Happy dad!
E1 and LT model is same product?
Yes
This is a great little guitar. It is a little unbalanced, as you point out. Once you get the hang of it, it plays well and sounds great. Granted, I'm no pro, but I have been making terrible sounds on different guitars for years.
Agreed, it's a pretty cool little guitar. It's weird, but fun and functional when you get used to it. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely going to get me some
I think they are awesome for the price. I just bought myself a new set for another project, Epi LP Std from '98 Korea made, very cool guitar and deserving of some. I did a quick unboxing of that guitar here if ur interested: th-cam.com/video/v9FQA4AiyFs/w-d-xo.html
Epi 's are for the most part, a far cry from Gibson in all ways.
Can you plug is directly to your phone to record?
You need an audio interface to go between ur phone and the pedal, something like the Joyo Momix Cab.
I have a yama ha strat and a Fender---i play the Yamaha a lot more as i leave it at an easy accessible place The guitar you play a lot always sound better I think
The Yamaha is definitely a cool guitar. If it's the one you reach for, that says something. I just got another one as backup and for alternate tunings... but it's strangely not the same. At the budget end there are a couple of Pacifica models and there are some big things marking them apart. More videos on that incoming. Thanks for watching and keep rockin'
Just bought their newest line JAZZCASTER which is based on Jazzmaster on sale at 50% on their timely December sale ohh boy it sounds so good right off the box. Stainless steel frets with beautifully rounded ends, bone nut, Korean hardware, alder body, tinted gloss eurethane maple neck, black walnut fret board, jazzmaster pickups and vibrato
Hello i have the same issue in my accoustic guitar same as this but little crack.. I just newly bought it and was planning to refund it.. But may i ask is it still okay? Or should i do what you did? Thankyou for answering!
If your guitar is new I would personally ask for a refund. This is a pretty cheap used guitar in the video, so I was happy to experiment. It has worked and the neck is solid. But a brand new guitar should not come to you like this. Best of luck and keep rockin'
@appetiteforguitar thankyou will do
Arriving in 2 days 🎸
Awesome, I hope you enjoy it!
does it have a hole for headphones?
Yes it does, my full review here: th-cam.com/video/x97M2JceEFU/w-d-xo.html
@@appetiteforguitar Awesome Thank you!
Thought there was something wrong with my looper. Very difficult to do something with such a short sample but thanks for the video. I know a little more now
Yeah, the sounds are good... but for a cheap modern equivalent multi-fx pedal with a much better and longer looper check out the NUX MG 100, I did a review/functions overview tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/A-69rt1xQm4/w-d-xo.html
Ughhhh... one point 8 seconds????? 😢😅😩
I've got one and it's 6/10. Much prefer the Jackson dinky's I had prior.
Ah I have to try a Dinky again. It's been a while. I have an Ibanez RG421. That's pretty great too.
Very nice guitar and I like the sound track too
Definitely a thick maple top. Nice ! Mine from 2008 is all mahogany with a beautiful striped thin veneer
Very nice!
Grote =firefly.
I've not heard that. Similar for sure.
Without
Did you change the pickguard to black or did it Come with pearlescent white pickguard
It comes with black
Gibson is much better. When you look at the details up, close, and feel both this is very apparent, but is it worth way more money? That’s up to the buyer. The price of the wood and labor is much more expensive, etc.
Awesome!! Did the studio come with the joe perry style pearlescent pickguard? I put one on my 2013 studio but it's the black pearlescent. We'll very nice congrats 👏
Lovely guitar for sure! I got the pickguard separately. Looks cool with it. I'm sure black pearlescent looks great too!
The yamaha seems to have grounding issues, this explains the hums even with the humbucker selected. Likely also cold solder joints, need reflowing.
Ive only ever owned fender styled guitars. But i played the wine red in stores. I want it.
Two low rise them up
got one mint secondhand for £550... love it so much I bought a secondhand core version £2200 for me the configuration is the best of everything... Core version is just that bit more refined. love them both.. 😂😂😂
The best is big bends nut sauce. Vasaline mixed with graphite. I'm sure the lem oil works, but the nut sauce lasts longer before you have to do it again.
Hey bud! Does this have a harmonizer/harmony effect?
Yes it does. It's a pretty cool little unit.
Thanks ! I just happen to have lemon oil and some 5000 grit. I will make improvised fret guard with plastic strips from milk jug.
I love this guitar
Loos like good stuff. That is how it comes?
Ah good question. From memory (this video is a couple of years old now), I think this one had a Seymour Duncan pup in it in the bridge position - that's the braided wiring. The original Epi Slash from a few years ago did come with them. Not the latest versions. Everything else is stock I believe i.e. orange drop capacitors etc is how it comes. Very very nice guitar. I have bought another one since which is completely stock and it's a beauty and the internals are high quality. I'll get a deep dive review up when I can - hopefully soon!
You just need to know how to use it it's not finicky.. wow line 6 is good just had a bad name
I definitely like the amp and Line 6 is a good brand from my experience. This specific amp just keeps on switching on FX randomly by itself... I'd start playing clean then after a few moments some other FX started getting introduced in the mix without pressing anything. Programming everything to clean can help a bit and it can behave, hence I found the best option to be external pedals. I was keen to underline in the video that it is pretty old and might have gone a bit weird... Sounds good though. I still like it and it's well worth investigating. Nice amp for not much money these days.
Yeah I'm about to get one cuz other practice amp broke , and I'm legit autistic, so I know I'll figure out a good tone lol most people won't take the time to really dial in a mf tho on strength , and make an opinion .
Does the drums sync to the looper. I mean can you play a loop along with the built in drums?
Ah, well you need to get your timing spot on to make the drums loop. It takes practice. It doesn't auto sync. When you get the timing it's very satisfying. Initially it is hard, but once you get the feel you should be able to do it as you want in my experience....
Is that reverb from the amp?
Sadly no reverb on the amp. It's coming from the Donner. Nice amp with ext. Fx plugged in.
Great review! My one issue is that it sometimes has major feedback when there shouldn't be any feedback (not placed where other amps are around or mics). Really not sure why this is. When I first got it, I didn't have this problem. I've had the amp for maybe four years now? Came out of the blue with the feedback problem. But, that being said, it is still is a perfect "practice" amp. Have used it for full band practices in the past and all liked the sounds it produced.
Ah, the feedback is a strange one. It feels like mine had a little bit of a life of it's own and possibly getting older it gets some strange behaviours over time. I like the amp a lot though strangely. For all it's quirks it sounds good. The quirks give it character :)!
Hey mate. Finally watched it. I'll change mine over today on my gretsch rat rod and see how they go.
Ah awesome! Please let me know how it goes. I'm about to put the new set I bought onto my 90s Epi Std too... Eurgh, I've been saying that to myself for the last couple of days, but life gets in the way. I just need to shut myself in a room for a few hours away from all distractions and get it done. I think you'll get there before me at this rate. Good luck!
Luna Athena 501 best guitar I ever saw for the money one of more famous private guitar teachers here east coast that taught many guitarists that started their own bands says it’s his favorite of all of his. And he could start his own guitar shop he has that many. I was checking out his Fenders n Revstars n he pulled that out n told me if I can find one I should buy it
Perfect example of the Dunning Kruger effect 👏🏼
A fair assessment 😅. Best to leave making these tools to the pros... If I can save even one other person attempting from this kind of stupidity I succeeded. Hopefully the idiocy was enjoyable to watch. Keep rockin'
