Like Jack, I recently ordered a Knaggs totally “blind”, without ever touching or playing one. It was a Kenai J, and this is the second of three times I have ordered a Knaggs guitar “blind”. The first time was for a Tuckahoe. That’s how confident I am in the brand and the build of these guitars. They are stellar instruments.
I have a 7 year old Chena - and it’s an absolutely stunner in all respects. Can easily hold its own against my Anderson Arcangel, Eggle Macon SC and PRS Custom 24. Wonderful guitars! 👍😀
i bought a butterscotch choptank with Fralin tele pups ( very similar to that olive guitar) from Peach. it is featured in a Peach youtube video hehe! I got it for a surprisingly good price new. it's outstanding in every way as you'd expect. it is my now 6th Knaggs guitar.
I had a kenai T3 for a while. Honestly best neck I’ve ever played. But feedback from people when I tried selling was that it looks like a ‘prs missing a chromosome’ 😢 I think they’re fantastic, artisan guitars.
About 5 yrs ago I got a hefty tax rebate so of course I thought “ NEW GUITAR” so I went to world guitars site as they present their products with real polish and I noticed a knaggs Steve Stevens SS2 or 1 in sunflower burst priced at £4200 so I bought it and even still today I’ve not seen anything to surpass it’s build quality playability and tone “bare knuckle mules” then it was stolen and I was numb being disabled I played it a lot so it’s loss was a huge blow......so knaggs are among guitars elite quality instruments.
Hold on did he just say "you can spec anything you like from the custom shop" ? Not having a go, but that simply isn't true I've enquired on numerous occasions over the last eight years or so about a lefty and it's a firm "no chance" there's only one lefty in existence and it was made by an employee for himself (looked like a natural brown Yamaha SA1000)
You're missisng the point with Knaggs that Joe Knaggs was head of PRS Private Stock for 20 years. The skill and qualtity of his guitars come from those 20 years at PRS.
JoeKnaggs didn't work for PAUL at PRS because he sucks. One of my favorite singlecuts I have ever touched is a PRS from the "Knaggs Era" Love Joe's guitars, regardless of the name on the head stock.
They can sound great, play great but Joe didnt learn a thing about design while working with Paul. They are, like you guys says in the Island, bloody ugly.
Thank you Jack & Peach Guitars - you guys are amazing!

Love your playing Jack. Cheers mate!

🤣
Are the Knaggs neck shapes roughly the same (what shape?) or subtly different? Good player btw! Best, Pete.
Sorry, you answered around 15:00......
I only played one, but darn it was a good guitar. Went home and thought about buying it. Went back to the store a few days later and it was gone. :(
If owning a knaggs will make me play like jack , ill take 2 . Love the channel .
The Choptank looks like a Godin (made in Canada) but sounds better in my opinion although Godin makes great guitars as well.
I just picked up a Kenai T1 P2, while I have 8 PRS 's this one is a step above
The Choptank sounds great, snappy like a Tele but beefier. What are you playing it through?
Thanks Robert - all clips were played through a King Tone Duellist OD pedal into a Dr Z Maz 18 amp 👍
Own 2 knaggs thankfully, a Honga and a Choptank t.... both killer :)
That army green is badass.

Olive drab Choptank is a dream.
You play them nicely.
The maz always sounds so good!
Absolutely Y-E-S!!! 🤘❤️
Does the knaggs have neck dive like an sg? Being 24 frets I would think so
Mine doesn't. Well balanced, and kicks some serious ass
I own prototype #1 of the creation series from Joe. Amazing instrument.
Best guitars I have had the fortune of playing!

The green one though! Has me gassing hard
Their body shape is almost identical regardless scale length and arch top approach, the silhouette would always be that shape.
all guitar you played in this video is good but occan blue number 3 for me is best sound
You're missisng the point with Knaggs that Joe Knaggs was head of PRS Private Stock for 20 years. The skill and qualtity of his guitars come from those 20 years at PRS.
Wonder what the Knaggs necks are like.. 50s fat or 60s slimmer? Measurements?

Love Joe's guitars, regardless of the name on the head stock.
Not always aesthetically pleasing imo.
I’m sure they’re extremely well made and sound good too but don’t really like the look!
Great tones, don't mind the body shape, ugly pickguards.
Kinda pricey for LP Jr and Gibson Studio level aesthetics.
These probably feel great to play and sound good too, but to me they just look a bit cheap. This is very subjective, of course.
Nothing heroic about Knaggs if you're lefty
Strange shapes 🙄
They can sound great, play great but Joe didnt learn a thing about design while working with Paul. They are, like you guys says in the Island, bloody ugly.
3199 pounds. LOL
The reason why they don't get to "sing" 😂
@@purimuadmuang2259 double lol 😂
Standard algorithm comment.
They sound great, look okay, but they're way too expensive.
Worth every penny.
Good guitars, but way too expensive.
translation " vintage inspired" means....rip off design of a strat or gibson! come on!! lets say it as it is! :-))
No point in reinventing the wheel when the original designs were so good. The square wheel never really caught on - but it was highly original!
