I like these kinds of comparisons where there’s just quick snips of each guitar instead of 4 minutes of talking in between each comparison

Finally a good compare video without playing every guitar different.
Yeah, that makes it harder to hear the difference.
Right? And there isnt a long break in between where it makes it hard to remember what the other sounded like
And not playing f**** solos !
Right, except any given model will have many different versions years that have completely different sounding pickups
@@DonnieFreymoyer this vid doesn't say vacuum truth, just a snippet of how some guitars sound, you obviously can make a prs sound like strat and make a strat sound like prs, it's a matter of is it a prs/strat now, or something different?
Everyone crying there's no tele I'm crying because i can't aford any of those guitars :(
Than stop crying and save some money
strats and teles are pretty cheap, i bet you could find a used mim tele for 400-450
wrong. the tele has a unique sound and can play any genre personally i think it is better than all these guitars because it is the most versitile.
@@mitchaelhollingsworth1698 that's not cheap at all
@@lurs21 all things are relative. if you want a decent mid level guitar the made in mexico fender standards are a good, versatile workhorse option. and yes, they currently are more expensive than they used to be, thanks fender. of course it does cost more than an entry level squier, but it is much less than a custom shop fender, so relative. anything much cheaper will probably be made overseas in asia. in the context of the video i think i made the comment i did because it is the cheapest way of attaining a playable iconic guitar (strat, tele) compared to the thousands it costs for a les paul or es335, rickenbacker etc. i used cheap to mean good value for money rather than meaning available for pennies. merry christmas, i hope like in a christmas carol with scrooge and bob cratchet, your boss gives you a raise and you can get your dream guitar.
I think this may be the first time I've seen a Jackson being played without heavy distortion.
It's plane wrong
@@elwolf8536 agreed
John Mayer uses a jackson
Agnaye Ochani Clean fills that are about 2% of the songs. Using Jackson (specially V) without distortion is blasphemy.
Yeah...Not the Jackson's finest moment...W/O distortion and heavy gain it sounds like a toy.
no tele ok fine whatever i'm not crying silently wishing there were a tele
Well, c'mon, we all know Tele is the best. It wouldn't be fair to the other guitars.
butterscotch tele for toans only ok?
Strat ftw
In the description he says "One from a brand" and as we know Stratocaster and Telecaster are the best from Fender factory (and they also created those models)

That Gretsch sounded fantastic.

nothing like a clean strat and a crunchy les paul. one of each, please!

Guitar/amp combos: Les Paul/Marshall and Strat/Deluxe Reverb.
so you are saying you want a thin clean light maple strat and a thick black chunky les paul?
I like em' cleeeeeaaaan I like em' crunchyyyyyyyy
I prefer a clean tele :')
The strat is the king of funk.
King of everything 😩😩😩😩😤😤😤
My strat is pretty funky
Fully agree with you. But Les Paul is much more multipurpose
@@vitalyshyshkanov5038 I might have to admit that, but if you ignore the price lel
with single coils every guitar sound like Strat
Love that you played roughly the SAME THING on each guitar, for a perfect comparison. Far too often ppl will play completely different things on each, making a comparison (especially for new players) difficult at best. Bonus points for different styles showcased + clearly identifying each model!
Tele and something with P90 is greatly missed.
Yeah, can hardly believe there's no Telecaster! I have tried all of these makes of guitar and I have always returned to my telecaster. Why? 'cos it does everything I ask of it!
I know its missing a jazzmaster although it does sound similar to prs on clean😅
@@colinwatt8410 - You aren't hard to please, then, are you?
Tell and special are obvious omissions.

gibson es guitars?
I'm whispering this so Music Is Win doesn't hear this, but I think the PRS sounded the worst. By far. Like it sounded shittttt- oh no he found me
Yeah, it was a muddy mess. It never really brought it, even with the distortion it was characterless. The Jackson wasn't great either, but damn that PRS sucked.
I mean I have never heard any guitar (well maybe never is an overstatement) sound worse than that prs. Hell, I own a couple of prs’s and they sound bloody brilliant with my rig. Maybe it’s just a weird setting on that Marshall or something lol
That's true and unfortunate cause my PRS by far sounds amazing clean so idk what settings he had going on
Well i know what you mean. It sounds like the Humbuckers have one of those shiny covers soldered on it, but in fact they doesn't. A non-guitarist maybe wouldn't notice it, but for some of us it is weird, hearing the guitar AND seeing it.
The Les Paul, Strat and Gretch were the three that really stood out as having both a distinct sound but also tonal richness.
- To my ear the rickenbacker has character but is still slightly muddy.
- The Ibanez sounded decent enough but lacking character.
- Not really sure what to make of the ernie ball.
- the PRS and Jackson were garbage.
one of the best videos I've seen on topic... no intro, no need for "this i Gibson...." just great playing and "see for yourself" attitude. Great job
Yes. I too am glad he recognized there was no need for words.
yes no boring talk
The Strat is the only one that sounds fundamentally different. Although I am surprised to say it I really like the sound of the Music Man Axis
JD Blackwell well, it’s using single coils
Hayes Temple , I get that. And it is a bolt on maple neck.
You can get mental sounds out a Strat. Gary Moore, “Murder in the Skies”.
i concur. also the way the strings are anchored to the bidy via the springs.
RIght? That took me a bit by surprise.
They sound great, but my heart lies on that Strat's bright neck pickup sound
But the neck pickup isn't bright. Did you mean bridge?
@@edannoble4116 in comparsion to humbuckers (and whatever those Gretsch and Rickenbacker pickups are) kinda bright
The way he sits with the Randy rhoads triggers me.
You mean the same as with every other guitar?
hes not sitting with it. He's got the strap very short so it's hanging in a very high position.
It’s like a man taking a piss but pulls his trousers and pants down to his ankles
who?
The rr and explorer probably the most comfortable to play sitting down.
The Rickenbacker surprisingly had the cleanest sound among all of the single coils (to my ears) and the Les Paul was the best sounding among the humbucker group. The Grestch Falcon distorted was just downright badass and the Les Paul again. Just killer.
For me, it was the Fender... Although it has this metallic-tinny sound, you can say I'm somewhat biased as I love them Fenders, especially the Teles... Boy I wish I had one Jim Root's Signature Tele.
Tbh I thought rickenbacker sounded horrible on all styles. Too thin and tinny
@@Submersed24 Don't see how it's thin, it has enough bass response. The strat on the other hand... annoying tinny sound you can't get rid of.
Overall I'd say the Gretsch with filtertrons takes the win.
@@riogrande163 I listened to it on studio monitors so prob a small difference
Kinda liked the PRS distorted. But only distorted really, clean sounds weird
Every time I hear the Strat, I always think of John Frusciante
NMages20 omg i feel you, and also i thought about californication live when i saw gretsch falcon :)
@@suatugur aaahhh the beautiful gretsch white falcon. Luck be a guitar tonight that's a pretty piece
Is that Rob Scallon on your Profile pic?
NMages20 i think of John Mayor
@Metal Morphine same bro that black strat from my childhood
I don’t know why, but I love the Les Paul’s sound
Everyone loves that sound! Gibson is true legend!
But do you like it’s price?
@@syrusj.9502 It doesn't matter ... if you need to have the best one.
We all have different opinions. To me I adore the strat but I love the Tele even more.
@@syrusj.9502 The price is worth for having the best guitar.
Les Paul and Strat are all I need to cover every sound I want. And man, that expensive PRS was a disappointment.
As the owner of a Gibson Les Paul, ‘72 Gibson SG, A Mexican strat, a Kiesel CT6 and two PRS Custom 22 cores I can honestly say: he isn’t using the PRS correctly. The split coils and volume roll offs make the PRS extremely versatile instruments. That being said, I love each of mine for different reasons, tone being only one of those.
@@MrPhotonjockey Just the comment i wa looking for, I own a PRS Core guitar myself as well and I firmly believe this guy just wasnt playing it right. Plus it looks like he is playing one of the CE model PRS'
Can't speak for their guitars, but I played a $3800 PRS bass once. The $1000 Rockbass there was a lot nicer.
@@MrPhotonjockey "isn’t using the PRS correctly" Plug it in the amp and play it.
Ha ha it was my second favorite tone wise in this demo
Music man sounds awesome in both clean and distortion! but Jackson sounds better with distortion on
I know it's funny I was going to say the same thing I was really surprised by the Ernie Ball Music Man
He played that Randy Rhoads Jackson the forbidden way
The only right way to play it is not to play it. Stupidest shape in existence.

It makes me sick.

I found rickenbacker 330 sound uniquely different from other guitar sound and i love it!
I had a 360/12. It was the COOLEST guitar I ever hated. I want another one, but they need to put a wider neck on those guitars. My nut was just under 1 5/8. Any finger would cover 3 strings. I think the 330 sounded best with a little gain. They are normally pretty thin when clean, but this one sounded pretty good with a little hair on it.
loved it too !
yok
Pretty expensive
Wish there was a cheaper one for like 500
The MusicMan was consistently good.
The Ibanez was far more impressive than I expected.
100% agree on both those
If only the MusicMan wasn't so hideous..
And then Ibanez is very light
Music man was my favourite sound
Yep music man is super good (ages ahead Fender and Gibson imo) but unfortunately super expensive.
With the rickenbacker, I hear the crunch but also the finesse of the tone. I'm probably hearing what I want to hear
Oh it's there, buddy
It had the best sound on the lead rips.
People are always surprised by the rickys lead tone, but they shouldnt be.
The Ernie Ball Music Man grabbed me in every use; great clarity in the sound that I wasn't expecting.
Yeah definitely had the richest sound
Bet it's one of the pricier ones though. Their gear fetches a pretty penny.
Same. Very surprising.
Same here. Quite good!

I was impressed by the Ernie Ball
Octavio López right? Kind of a surprise on that one
Octavio López I wasn’t
Hey guys looking to possibly buy a guitar. I really like this guitar too. Was wondering if the first two cuts of playing have a name or type.. Was looking to find more play similar to this maybe something I can look up. So i can look further into the guitar. If you respond thank you ahead of time.
T Mate if you like the Ernie Ball, I would suggest trying a Gibson. Obviously there’s the Les Paul, but I like SG and Junior models too. I own an L6-S that I love but it’s kind of a lot and I don’t know if I would recommend it as a first guitar. Fender Telecasters are also super cool, I’ve never owned one but any time I get ahold of one, they’re a blast. Honestly, just go to a store and try some out. See what works for you, see what feels/sounds right, and most important, find something that’s going to feel right for you. What you do with the guitar is far more important than who made it.
AleisterMeowley Agreed, but a Gibson isn’t the ideal starting beginner guitar. I would try a less quality guitar such as a squire, epiphone, etc.
The PRS custom was something special-sounded great clean, but it’s overdrive overtones just had a great chaotic feel.
The coolest guitar demo video I've seen.
I never really gave MusicMan much attention before seeing this, but that Axis has a really great balanced sound.
That Les Paul still sounds the best overall with crunch on.
But IMHO that's an ulgy color especially for a Paul. Usually they look so good. Mines black w/ gold trim.
Overall best impression: Musicman! Devided on clean and distorted:
Clean: Strat!
Distorted: Gibson.
Can't take my ears off the Les Paul and the Strat.
Same
Same here
Really? I thought the Les Paul sounded among the worst (relatively speaking).
there's definitely a reason they're so popular
It’s the RG, Strat and LP for me
That Gretsch sounds badass with a ton of overdrive.
It sounds the same

@@bccal5982 i'd swap the thumb nd the rick, he just used the wrong pick=up
Was it just me, or was the PRS a bit muddy sounding? Especially compared to the Les Paul.
yes my prs sounds nothing like that!
I think of PRS as nasally and dull sounding, I hate how they sound, always have.
@@THEQueeferSutherland I dont know, my les paul sounds like mud compared to my PRS, but hey everyone hears things differently
@Max Ambient depends what kind of distortion, like a box AC30's top boosted distortion can be pretty chimey and jangly.
@@THEQueeferSutherland Vox* you mean?
This really clarified for me why the Strat and the Les Paul are so popular. With dirty tones I like the les Paul but for clean I like the Strat.
The Music Man sounds amazing. Definitely my fav out of these guitars. Rickenbacher is also awesome though
Gavin Cox agreed!
Yeah for sure, i'd never really heard much of the music man guitars, and i fell in love with it a little here
I liked the Jackson, Strat, and Gretch. Sadly I was a little dissapointed hearing that PRS.
No Good Life I liked the prs
The grestch is pretty huge.
@@abandonedaccount6878 doesn't matter, it sounds good eitherway
Cyndigo yeah, still sounds great, plus its s hollowbody
i like hollowbodies ok
@@abandonedaccount6878 hollow bodies are awesome. I have a Gibson ES 335 and it sounds sick
For me:
1. Gibson Les Paul
2. Strat
3. Others
1. strat
2. LP
3. Gretsch
Sell the rest
rickenbacker is just such an amazing guitar.
I know! I definitely wanna get one...but they're rather expensive.
Crisp but worth the price
I have a couple and even though they are nice, they are also very limited as to what they can do. The guy shows it at the end of the video when the song becomes heavier. They are very good as rhythm or second guitars, not very nice for leading as they lack sustain and gain (even using high gain pickups, compared to a Fender or Gibson as an example).
Im in love with their basses
Honestly i think they’re pretty ugly
PRS sounds muffled and too bassy for me even with distortion
Abraham Paiva this is just my opinion so don’t get mad, I personally love the muffled bassy sound, it’s just sounds so awesome
The ironic thing is that standard paul reed smith guitar would be the most expensive one out of all of these guitars
Daniel Fořt the most expensive is the rickenbacker
@@yeetusfeetus3963 I was thinking about saying that PRS and rickenbacker are the highest priced ones but if you don't count vintage instruments, PRS has a lot of that useless "ultimately custom" or "private stock" or whatever. I'm completely acoustic guy and electric guitars re just my interest so if I got some misinformation please correct me.
PS: PRS guitars aren't paid for the raw sound - if you don't EQ it or don't put any tone effects on it it just doesn't sound right - just like in this video.
I think it's because the amp distortion doesn't fit with the guitar, try other distortion in pedal
Having played at least one form of every one these guitars, takeaways: I'm really reminded why the Les Paul has all the renown that it does and holy cow, the Gretsch sounded stupid good with distortion, way better than I remember them sounding.
Fender & Gretsch my favorites ❤️
bro
and i'm happily surprised by the musicman, but fender and gretsch all the way
Definitely my faves
3:48 Oh shit I thought that was coming out through the phone instead of the headphones
Was surprised by how good Rickenbacker sounds through Marshall
I know right, some think it’s blasphemous to play a Ricky through anything but a Vox
I've been playing my buddy's 360 through a Marshall can for awhile...and I'm afraid that when he finally comes to claim it, I'm just gonna have to go buy my own.
@@pinball-wizard They just pair really well with a vox because ricks and vox are both jangly
Have you seen George Harrison on those Rickenbackers they are so good
Yeah but then he goes to solo and it falls apart.
This is by far the best elec guitar comparison video ever made. This was my 50th time watching it kkk
Oh no, the last time I watched one of these (the Famous Bass Guitars comparison video) I bought a Thunderbird.
Bumbo Bamble Gogglestrothem The Eighteenth thunderbirds have no personality get your self a p bass OR a fine as jazz bass
mescalorma Covers ye Rickenbackers are amazing I’m just a fender head I guess
you did the right thing! Gibson basses are underrated but the best basses out there!
There's just something about that Rickenbacker sound that I love. I'm going to save up for one 😊
Deirdre McIntyre I personally feel it has some sort of hybrid sound.
The lows are relatively warm, while the highs are relatively bright.
I like that.
Completely struck by the 330 myself, as well, at least for the clean tones.
SpaceDisco1 I have a 90’s 330/6 with hi-gain pickups, and am forever amazed at how mid-rangey it is, considering how everyone bangs on about them as jangle pop guitars. Sits very nicely in a mix.
I've watched the video like 10 times back now: my review.
Les Paul sounds so warm and full. Good example of why the Les Paul is often the benchmark guitar. If there is one criticism it is that the LP seems to lack the clarity of some of the other guitars have but it is very versatile. How much clarity you want is also a matte of taste and style.
The Stratocaster has a very distinct sound that is clear, chimey, and higher than most of the others but I consistently liked it less to be honest. That chimey aspect just didn't appeal to me. That said; a lot of songs are best played on a Stratocaster. Hello Nirvana.
The PRS something seemed off about. In isolation it didn't sound bad but it didn't sound good either and seemed upstaged in every category by 2 or 3 other guitars. Did the best with the gain.
The Ernie Ball was really impressive to me. It has such a rich tone, great clarity, but also versatility. It made the PRS look bad every time. Maybe the PRS just sounded off because it was followed up by the Ernie Ball. Also I would have been really interested to hear the SG compared to the Ernie Ball and LP; something about the Ernie Ball was reminding me of the SG and it might have been that it sounded like a clearer LP but I don't remember the SG sounding so rich.
The Rickenbacker was both brighter and warmer than the Stratocaster and even though it wasn't quite as clear it lacked that chimeyness which made me like it better than the Strat pretty consistently. Also has a distinct beautiful higher tone but for that reason strikes me as a guitar that isn't as versatile. Rickenbacker wins the style contest though. Absolute work of art to look at. I'd want one just to mount on my wall even if sounded like shit.
The Gretsch was also an all round stunning instrument to listen to. You can really hear that bigger hollow body give it a vague but rich acoustic character and rounded out sound. It didn't seem to particularly lack in versatility either although its character is probably more suited to some styles than others. Super impressive overall and I wish I could think of more to write about it. Wish it wasn't so expensive.
I'm going to group the Ibanez and Jackson because this test was poor for them for the same reason. These both shine as metals guitars and I think this video shows why. They don't have much if any character of their own so in a test that mostly relied on their built in tone and characters they seemed very lackluster, flat, and boring. But they both have a lot of clarity and easy to work low action fret boards suited to the high distortion and settings in most metal music. If the style of music the guitar is meant for is very mods and settings heavy that clarity is important and the lack of character isn't an issue because it is given character that way instead. And for something like power metal they will probably sound much better actually. That is why both of them only started to not sound hilariously bad by comparison until the very end when there was more box settings to give them something other than flat boring clarity.
Best Overall Performers: Les Paul, Ernie Ball, Grestch
Niche sounding guitars: Rickenbacker, Stratocaster
Other Niche: Ibanez & Jackson
IDK what to think: PRS
My Personal Fav: Ernie Ball Music Man Axis (Ernie my man why you gotta be $3,000?)
I kinda wish there was a video just like this but with lower price point guitars and not models that mostly cost $3,000+ so it could help inform my buying decisions better. Also wish an SG was included in this test and as Gibson's best selling guitar it probably should be.
Cool review, thanks
Philip Mcknight has incredible content on TH-cam about comparing cheap guitars, even in various price ranges. He's part of the reason I bought my favorite Harley Benton. It also happens to be one of my cheapest guitars.
I was actually surprised by the clarity and brightness of the Jackson in the clean picking part. Sure it didn't have much "character," but it was clean like a humbucker while being bright like a single coil.
I agree with the assessment of the EB, but the bridge pickup with distortion sounded cheap and weak.
Best combo (boring recommendation?) is:
Stratocaster & Les Paul
Exactly
I think the Gretsch was the best sounding for all of the bits played. Sounds like a very versatile guitar.
Alan Gross A 2011 white Falcon ‘55 re-issue is my go to guitar. I also use a re-issue Gretsch Steamliner for my choice of centre block guitars, and a Tele for solid bodies.
Folks don’t associate the Falcons with the versatility they actually possess!
Peace
@@cherrypickerguitars Back in like '75 - 76 I used to have a friend that, wrote his own tunes and he played a Gretsch. I played drums with him and another guy that played bass. We recorded one of the songs he wrote, Flight of the Walrus, on my 8-track recorder. We had a blast; ohhh the good old days!
Not that versatile. I own a g5120 sunburst.
Great guitar, but trying to play on the higher frets is a pain in the ass compared to something like a strat or RG.
They are also a pain to setup well (you have to sand the bridge to perfection or it will move on hard bends), and it's very easy to damage the jack input wiring, but it's very hard to change it (when compared to something like a strat).
Upgraded to a roller bridge just for the looks, but it might have made it a little bit more tune stable when using the bigsby (maybe it's just in my head).
They also develop cracks around the jack. I've installed a long socket and a jackplate and it looks like it fixed the problem.
In my opinion it's one of those guitars that you either love or hate. Mine may have all those flaws, but when I plug it to the amp... Damn, does it sound good.
@@megarafjogos LOL! And that sound is what I was talking about, because I know nothing of the other things you're talking about.
I own that black Falcon. Love it!!!
Crazy how deep the PRS neck pickup is. Sounds otherworldly.
Not going to lie, I know very little about guitars but that Strat sounds pretty wicked.
same here i know little but that sound coming from that guitar is so unique compared to the others
Then you guys dont know...the les paul has the best sound...!
Sum_Dum_Gai. False.
@@sum_dum_gai NOPE
Sum_Dum_Gai not correct
This needs a part two and probably three as well - SO many tonal variables here...
The most spirited and appreciated guitar video ever
Best comparison vid I've EVER seen....would like a metal only follow up with Gibson SG, Schecter Omen 7 string, ESP Drop D Les Paul-type, Jackson Flying V with some punch pedals on it, and Warwick Warlock!!!
Nothing has more fuller sound than Les Paul. It's just so good even withouta backing track
The LP sounds gr8 with shitloads of distortion.
Gretsch electromatic jet is fuller sounding by a lot. I have one. easily the biggest sound out of anything
Yeah, since more is better. Good luck getting the right balance in the mix
impossible to choose, every change i was like “no, this one is the best...”
To own them all would be the best choice, but no money for that I have. Sad.
Strat or Rickenbacker always.
There’s no way you thought that when it changed from strat to PRS
Except for the Rickenbacker. I never liked the sound of it
@@Cohdiboi Well I did. And before you get all hostile, because I know your type, everyone has different tastes and preferences. There is no "correct" answer
They all sound great and have their own tone. That said, it’s clear there’s a reason why the Strat has stood the test of time and is still so popular. It’s tone truly is unique and perfect for what it does.
There are two types of 'shootout's that make sense in comparing guitars somewhat fairly - this is one of them.
Question 1: What do they sound like when we play them as much the same as possible through the same settings on the same amp.
That's what we have here. Useful.
Question 2: Since each guitar has multiple differing characteristics from each other that will inspire different playing techniques and styles - even implying the need for different amps - What is the sonic and physical differences when we play them as they tend to be best at. Accepting that we can really use any instrument any way we want to, they really do have different areas where they tend to shine more here or there. Also useful, but in a different way.
Between the two comparisons, a player can get a really good idea of what guitars might suit them more for different ways of playing.
Hard to say. For me, the clean tones sounded better on the single coil strat and on the Gretch. Overdriven tones, on the PRS and Ibanez. Overall, that Music Man, outstanding
Agree. Strat's can have a thin -if expressive- sound, so i like having other, 'fatter'/ rounder sounding guitars in the mix (as here) to balance it. Agree the Ibanez does great with overdriven tones. He didn't show the clear round mellow or 'jazzy' tones the Les Paul can notably do much better than a Strat. But for clean Rock wailing, the Strat has long been preferred and notable.
I'm glad to see this type of comparison. I've seen others make an attempt at comparing guitars and they failed terribly.
Thank you and God bless you.
OMG the Rickenbacker guitar sounds so fabulous in any style !Thanks for this great comparison !
That's REALLY proper comparison, not like playing a minute, bobbling a minute, playing a minute on the other guitar.
Very cool how having those various tone colors allows you to take your song arrangements to the next level
Srry but that MUSIC MAN is in another level
I came here to say the same thing. I'm not going to overlook those anymore.
unfortunate it's so god damn ugly.
@@THEQueeferSutherland It has it's charms. On another note, I just found out why it sounds so good...It used to be Ernie Ball's Eddie Van Halen signature. They changed the name after he switched to another company.
@@TheSilence1 I think it's more appealing not being anyone's signature model anymore, I personally don't like signature models for some reason, I sort of prefer my own guitar, not some other guy's.
@@THEQueeferSutherland Yeah I agree with that. I was just trying to point out that the guitar sounds so nice because a player with a great ear asked for something specific.
No telecaster, disappointed.
Only one guitar from each brand. So fender stratocaster
Telecaster is old they use a strat instead
@@_neishi0859 acoustics are old so no one is using them anymore by your logic
Same with the SG
@@_neishi0859 Telecaster is old but you are dumb...
I'm glad you included the George Harrison rickenbacker 330
how come this has only 8k views? What a BRILLIANT video! Both regarding concept and editing. Subscribed!!
Strat and Rickenbacker was the best clean.
Les Pauls and Marshall’s are a magic combination.
Strat was the best overall.
I loved the Grestch Falcon sound!!!! Sounds so vintage compared to the others and I lover that
Oh how much I love hollows. To me Rickenbacker and Falcon are both up there, Les Paul right behind them. Wish there was a 335/Sheraton tho. I'm convinced that semi-hollows are one to rule all
I can't believe I liked the Jackson. See why Stills and Young loved Gretsch.
this might possibly be the best comparison I've seen thus far.
The first chord in the video kept making me think he was about to play 'Black' by Pearl Jam
Yes I though he would play that song lol
This is my favorite comment 😂
Yeaah i thought that too
Ricky has a great clean tone
A bit of jangle to it too
Still, I noticed that he's using different pickup positions in the same riff, which increases the tone difference between guitars and affects the comparison somehow. Anyway, it's great to hear those models through the same riffs.
Awesome! In my opinion the best is Strat, it sounds so good in every riff
This is definitely the best way I have seen to compare unbiased guitar sound.
Strat just works. That Gretsch Falcon is pretty damn good with all of it, too.
Fender Stratocaster for me, the most versatile guitar!
It's tele
@@bozopennywize u sure?
Fender Telecaster? Perhaps one of the All-Time Greatest.
By far the best guitar vídeo in TH-cam. Please do more of these
Gibson SG and Fender Telecaster would be nice in the mix
The Music Man was the surprise package for mine. Wasn't expecting much from it but it made a strong impression.
to me, they all sound very similar (except the strat) clean, but after turning the drive on they all sound so unique!
This is the most satisfying guitar video I've recently seen.
I really like the sound of the Rick - but of course, I'm a huge Beatles fan, so take that how you will 😅
I love rickenbacker 330 sounds.. very bright clarity
Rickenbacker bright chim-ey sound used to great effect in the mid-'60's by the Beatles.
kevin Parker uses that guitar mainly :')
@@tracymorgan2983 wow thats cool
@@carlcushmanhybels8159 yeah i Saw it on their posters wall
emanresulooc poi yeaaaaaa 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤩🤩🤩🤩
When I think about guitar!! The First image the come in my head is a Fender Stratocaster!
Absolutely,my mind goes to a black strat
Overdriven guitars are the best kind of ones. I don’t know why but they sound so good.
Everyone: sad cuz no tele.
Me: happy cuz there's the black falcon
the_luke 135 Hearing it, especially with distortion just reminds me how much I looooove Filtertrons. They just have a clarity out of this world, while not losing punch.
I really like the PRS, Les Paul, and Ernie Ball the best, probably in that order. Maybe Les Paul number one.
I never was a LP guy, but after this video... I’m in love
Should be a 50’s style tele instead of a Jackson RR.
I like the sound of the fender
