    Who said you’re too old? Sounds like someone is all hopped up on hater-tots. We makin this shizz look good! Age is a mindset. Don’t let the old man in. Keep rockin brother. Great video. Keep’em comin. Yes I’d like to see the string change on that one! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

    just found your video. Really in depth and you actually show every part of the guitar. Other youtubers I have seen review this preferred to keep their videos shorter and more on the sound rather than the details. Amazing job!

    I can see a proper size T handle hex wrench would make a bigger better tuning wrench to keep in a gig bag or case. Save the "easy lost" wrench for emergency use.

    I have the other black one. It's a great guitar. Pickups were pretty nice but I switched to the 81/85 set. I had room to mount the 9v in the cavity. Switched strings to 8's. It plays beautifully. I still like my Strandberg better but I use 10's on it because that gauge seems to work on that particular guitar. The neck on my Strandberg is like glass and it's shape makes me aware of my thumb placement. Still love my Eart.

    • @DoubleDguitar

    I was really torn between the poplar burl Natural model and that black one. I am totally a tremolo guy so I went with the GW2 I think it is called. I think it is a great tremolo. Very light and easy to use. I don't typically dive bomb the hell out of it but it will probably do that ok. I think honestly if there is ANY gripe, I have about the Electric Arts Headless guitars it is that they could have smoothed some of the sharper edges on the body a bit and it would be both nicer looking but also even more comfortable to play then it already is. It has quickly turned into my goto guitar. It really is an amazing value. Oh and BTW mine is a Poplar burl but it has an Ashwood body...

    • @DoubleDguitar
      @DoubleDguitar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh cool, I didn’t think the did the poplar on ash, thanks for mentioning that here. I have been a trem and Floyd guy forever, it would be cool to have something like the old Steinberger adjustable and locking trem that could transpose on something like this. I agree about the ends of the body, this is a hard angle. It doesn’t bother me when playing, but something I noticed while holding and inspecting it. Thanks for checking out the video🤘🏻

    • @petermatos4613
      @petermatos4613 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@DoubleDguitar Agreed. The Tremolo is actually an adjustable and locking trem tho. I watched many videos on this guitar before I bought it and many lamented the tremolo. I actually find it quite good and does not seem to go out of tune the way some folks seemed to say it does. Again Perhaps they are really dive bombing it like crazy. I mostly use it for a kind of vibrato effect and the occasional medium dive. I have considered taking the whole thing apart and radiusing the edges of the guitar and then refinishing it. Also one of the main things that annoyed me was that they initially made the body to look much more like the strandberg models. I wanted one of those but in the time I spent watching youtube videos and trying to decide which one of the headless models I wanted they changed the design of the body. The new body is nice and again very comfortable but I think the older body looks much better.

      @DoubleDguitar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@petermatos4613 let me know if you do the edges, or post pics in the group. I will have to look into the trem model. Some good string stretching until no movement happens is the key with locking trems, or even most tuners, I find.

    I bought one of these I think it was earlier this year maybe late last year. I'm nowhere near as good at guitar as you but I've enjoyed mine. Solid guitar and nice price for a first little dip into headless guitars. That said, I do feel like for an extra 150 getting something like a Schecter Omen Elite is a much better deal, but it's also not a headless with a cutout for classical position which was a big selling point for the eart to me.

    • @DoubleDguitar
      @DoubleDguitar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man, I appreciate that. I have been really working on some fun exercises and this guitar makes playing in my small space a lot more enjoyable. I totally agree about the classical and standard playing positions, both feel great. I had a Schecter 6 and also an 8 and they both were great for the money. Neither had the fretwork that this has, though. I do miss that SoCal however lol. Thanks for checking out the video! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

    They packed that guitar really well, I've seen other videos where it only had a few wedges in a box and nothing protecting the fretboard, not sure if I should order direct from their website or if Amazon is no different.

    Practical question. No Headstock but is there anywhere you can clip a headstock tuner on it ? Strandbergs have a support behind the string locks which would probably work but doesnt look as if the EART could ?

    Sorry, I don't get it: did you plug in headphones to the guitar? How does it sound? What headphones?
    I was thinking of buying the Pro version as it has a different (and Maybe) better/easier bridge...What do y' think about it?
    Thanks!

    • @DoubleDguitar
      @DoubleDguitar  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey man, yeah the little practice amp goes into the guitar and then headphones right into it. Fun little thing.
      I have heard the pro is good, but in the fb group a lot of people seem to like this one just a little better. It’s kind of subjective, but I have grown to really like this bridge. And the neck is amazing. If you are on fb, maybe jump into the group and see what some others say. It seems this one has all the bases covered, by most people’s comments there.
