Great video! I love the description you give of every guitar, one suggestion. Your description should be a shop front for each guitar you have talked about. It shouldn’t be some random things you recommend plus 15 other things. I was thinking about using your links but I clicked on 2 and it showed a bunch of amps, microphones, and guitars that weren’t even in this video. Again great video and good advice!
Definitely agree. TH-cam has changed their shop feature several times, which has negatively affected these older videos that used to have product links. Need to go back and fix them. Thanks!
Nope it is all accoustic. The reverb etc is added accoustically via the vibrations of the actuator. Playing it first hand is a huge difference to hearing it in a video - it's literally magical 😅
Just a slight correction. Scalloped X-bracing is not to give more volume for sound, it's for tuning of the top wood. It's usually done by hand. Good comparison though, thank you.
It’s a volume and tone thing. The weaker bracing allows the top to flex more, resulting in greater movement of the air inside the box, and tonally it results in more low-mid range response.
I am playing a Fender in Grand Concert size and am a bit surprised that both Fender and Ibanez aren't on your list. The Alverez 60 series might be a more fair comparison once you get into Taylors and Martins. All of the Epiphones I have looked at are too big for my liking. I'm also not sure I'm ready for mahogany.
I really appreciate the demonstrations. But it would really be helpful if these recommendations included the actions of each as they come from the factory. I presume all these guitars weren’t set to you. After all, a setup could add an additional 120. 00 bucks! Where if it’s decent height to make a informed decision. After all a lot of people don’t have close access to shops that can do this! Including myself, which I would have to travel 60 miles!!!
Best edit for a guitar comparison, thanks for the amazing job
That Epiphone is nice, Martin too. I’ve been looking at the Martin 000-15M
That $400 Alverez is the best sounding guitar of all these

Nice selection. A really good price range for affordability and quality! Good presentation with just enough info on each.👍👍👍👍👍
Is the transacoustic an acoustic that identifies as an electric? 🤔
The real question is will it sterilize itself while people cheer?

Love the cheesy sitcom intro. 😂
The Martin HPL has a nasal cold
Nice editing.
Thanks!

If you bothered to watch the video you would see that the first guitar demonstrated was an Alvarez.
@@garfield8900 not the 60 series Alvarez if you bothered to read the comment.
Not all martin guitars sound awesome, that dx1e i dont happen to like , i wonder why

Learn to do it yourself…its not hard
Varies by individual guitar regardless of model.
You could cut the umbilical chord and look up that information yourself specific to the one you’re interested in.
$5.00 sand paper from Walmart and an Allen wrench.
I thought that the Yamaha ls ta is all solid. Solid top and back and sides
