      @@nihilist92 been there man, lol. I remember in high school, a guy had just got one, and he brought it to show it off. I stopped him in the lunch room and asked could I see it. He had the big schecter case with the blue lining. I remember picking it up and being disappointed his parents got him the standard instead of the custom 🤣 at the time I think the only model you could get was the black w/silver stripes

      I'd recommend this guitar to anyone and everyone, whether you're a A7X fan or not. They play great sitting, or standing, super comfortable. If you can get your hands on one, give it a try!

    Hey man, good video, I actually tested a custom s model on a guitar center and immediately fell in love with it. The only concern I have is with the Sustainiac pickup, reading a particular comment seems some guitars have issues with it, I'm trying to decide between the satin gold version of the custom s or an ESP LTD EC-1000, 'cuz Floyd Roses can be a pain in the ass sometimes hehe cheers

    • @DeweyJHall1
      @DeweyJHall1  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks! Both the Syn and the LTD Ec 1000 are killer guitars. You couldn't go wrong with either. If you're not a big floyd guy, go with the Ec1000. Honestly tho, floyd's aren't that bad to deal with. Once you get them dialed in, they stay put. Especially if you keep the same string gauge and tuning on them. If you want a SYN, but don't want the floyd, try the SYN HT custom

    I just bought 2 of these last month, waiting to get them. One of them is the Custom HT which was a brand new and the other one is a used 2011 Custom which is White with black pinstripes. I really hope I find a Dark Earth model in the future since I don’t have a Sustaniac version yet…

    I got a 2016 Satin Gold Burst Custom-S used for $700. Had to sell it to make rent. I’m still itching like a fiend to get another one sometime around the end of the year. Was a dream guitar since I started playing and listening to metal, but it exceeded any expectations I had for it. Played like butter (nah, silk), was comfortable, the 1500 floyd stayed in tune, one of the most comfortable necks I’ve played on (close tie between that and the Dimebag neck for number one).

    Hey man, great video. I happen to have a question. When engaging the sustainiac on the gold model (post 2018), does it work on the 4th String? I tried 5 diff guitars, 2023 and 2024 and all had this issue where the 4th string wouldn't work on the middle position with the sustainiac. It's NBD and i settled with one, sometimes it works but most of the time, that particular position on the 4th string just doesn't work so wanted to check if it was normal or a new thing with newer models. Cheers!

      @DeweyJHall1 entire string, worst part is that I found this issue with 5 different guitars (all the same model). I contacted Sustainiac folks and their answer was something along the lines of "we didn't know if we should've kept that mode anyways". So I wanted to check with someone else who has the same guitar to see if it's a new production issue or what exactly. Note that a while ago I was able to get it to randomly work but it normally just doesnt. I mute all strings and only ring it open and it doesn't work :(

      @@P1nkman thanks for being a long time viewer and sticking around! I've got no experience with any of those currently. I've owned other ibanez models. I'd put a Syn Custom up against any guitar honestly. They are one of the best guitars in production in my opinion. I've owned or played just about everything and they can hold their own against any of them. You don't have to worry about missing out on anything if you have one, that's for sure.

      @@kdoo7545 currently the only Syn guitar that is in that range is the black distressed one. It's $1,999. The custom and custom HT are $1199, and the custom s is $1399. You're getting your money's worth with them in my opinion. I'd always recommend shopping used tho, becuase you can save around 2-$400 at least on these newer ones. If you pick up an older custom, you can save more. I've purchased all mine used, these days people take care of them, so must are always in great condition. Now the older 2000 models are hard to find in good condition becuase people just did not take care of them like they should back then lol
