It looks like the hole is there , they just didn't put rod in? Can't you just put a rod into the neck? Or even have the hole drilled and a rod installed ? Would it just be cheaper and easier to put a new neck on it? A Warmoth flamed maple neck would make that problem a thing of the past. ***Edit*** oh... I read that the fret board has to come off first. Well guys , go ahead and let me have it.
You could also alternatively do a truss rod "replacement". I've seen a video where someone cut off the fretboard, swapped out the truss rod, and glued back on the fretboard on like an old Telecaster. Maybe if there's a cavity they can add a truss rod or route one if there isn't. Like the other alternative though, it is gonna cost a pretty penny. At that point it'd probably be cheaper to get a cheap Ibanez or Jackson 7-string, spray paint it pink, and add on the pick guard.
Take the finger board off, put some carbon rods in there and a 2 way truss rod, oh and replace the wood screws with threaded bits, sorted. Absolutely a dumb think to do, but since when has that stopped you.
you can make a hello kitty pick guard at nearly any sign company for like $50 and you can paint a strat pink....so, that might have been a cheaper route.
dude, Warmoth 7string neck roasted flame maple with stainless steel frets and you’re GOLDEN. you could easily get them to paint the headstock to match the body too.
A refret will straighten the neck, as long as the luthier knows that's what you want to do. If it's bowing in, they can use frets with thicker beads to spread the fret slot. After you do several frets, it'll start to flatten. If it bows the other way, they can use thinner beads. I've refretted several old acoustic that didn't have truss rods.
Squier is long overdo for another Sanrio collab. The Sonic series is PERFECT for it! I regret not getting the Badtz-Maru bass back when it was $99 on MF. It's the one that got away... So hard to come by now too!
This video is like buying the shittest car because you like the hub caps and replacing everything else on the car. Like why not just buy a hello kitty pick guard and put it on a good guitar and paint it pink...?
I remember when the first hello kitty guitar came put at guitar center it was a squire strat and it was actually decent for 350 dollars back in 2008. And i put some nice slash sig pickup on the bridge in it and a floyd rose with locking tunners and locking nut and its a beast
Warmoth might make a neck for that. I know they make excellent standard Strat type necks. Not sure if they make 7 string necks, but if they do, that might be your best option.
thank you so much for shaping my childhood, you’re really the best and i wish you the best . when i saw you in the fnaf movie, i screamed, literally in that movie theater. you will never be forgotten, at least not here. thanks for everything and sacrificing your sleep and time for us all. miss you!! -crying in my bed 😭
I have a Squire Stagemaster 7 string that I've been considering modding into a Hello Kitty 7. Wonder if one of those necks would fit this and fix the no truss rod issue?
You should try to talk a luthier into seeing if they’d make a neck with one of the old 80’s Banana headstock designs like you’d see on a lot of old Kramer’s 👀
I put about $700+ into my son's Harley benton 😂. James Hetfield pickups and floyd rose FRX, new nut locking tuners and custom knobs. Even a custom camouflage paint job. It's amazing.
Bro thats an epic guitar! I wish i had one of those! But to be fair what did you expect ordering off of Alibaba express. But wanna hear a fun fact? Hello kitty is like the japanese equivalent to goth and all that stuff supposedly. I can't remember the specifics source i was reading from but i found out that around the same time as goth and stuff was becoming popular so was cutesy pastel color stuff in japan. Whats funnier to is that both were a theme all about rejecting old and outdated traditions that no longer served to favor younger upcoming generations. Its funny how both have the same motives, around the same era but have completely contrasting styles! Edit: then again this while tidbit was from a random repost of an article i found on Pinterest. So take this info with a decently sizable grain of salt. But the possibility of that being the case sounded really interesting!
I got this guitar and asked them to make it 8 string. I always offer to pay extra for premium upgrades. It costs me an extra $30US.... I always ask for "premium" upgrade now- but tge standards of Chinese guitars has been improving at a scary rate the past few yesrs
If the neck is now too bowed to play normally, then just tune it to an open chord such as Amin, and use it for slide. The overly high action will help prevent the slide from clunking against the frets, especially for single note lines on the High E string. I'm kinda' eager to see and hear you do some rippin' slide leads between some low sludgy slide riffage... A dedicated 7 string high action slide guitar could be an extremely cool addition to your arsenal... 🤘🏻😎👍
I’m 16 and I would say that I look around what I’m supposed to in my eyes. However of others that might not be the case. I’m a 4’11 black girl and in a Uber to go to work one day the Uber said that I “look too young to work”. I don’t mind maybe looking a little older in the face but at the end of the day it’s my hight. All of my relatively short existence people I’ve met have always assumed that I’m younger than I really am. When I was 7th grade some woman I met said I looked like I was in 5th. It was an odd experience. For me I just look appropriate for what I said be and not younger or older if that makes sense. Ps. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS EDVASIAN YAAAAAAAAH🎉
if you want the real helllo kitty guitar you will pay alot of money for one , i missed out on a steal of a deal on one once i regreat buying it now consider how much they fetch for the real ones now.
Bro you should do this through the Fender Japan custom shop in Tokyo. It will cost more, yes, but it will be an heirloom keeper without any ethical concerns. Maybe you can offer a promo video for a discount?
There are surprisingly quite a few knock-off guitars that work pretty well with the right modifications. For example, you can easily get a replica of James Hetfield's EET FUK explorer for $300 rather than spending $2,500 on an original MX-220. I am planning to order a Rickenbacker copy & modify it to create a replica of Cliff's famous Rickenbacker
I own a heavily modified Mitchell md-300. I bought it when I graduated high school. Needless to say the only thing that is stock is literally the body. Everything is swapped INCLUDING the neck. Just buy a 7 string neck and mount that bad boy up. And before everyone asks "why did you drop so much money into am entry level guitar?" Well that's because the body felt fucking amazing to me
It may sound trash, but it would make for a great black metal album since the sound setup for bm is usually like fisher price instruments recorded through a rotary phone
When you said “$600” and then “neck so bowed it’s practically unplayable” and topped it off with “I wouldn’t necessarily recommend getting this” I knew I has to leave and never return to your channel
Take the neck off and look at the other end for a trust rod adjustment cause alot of cheap companys put them in the wrong side so you cant adjust it unless you pull it off the body
Its a smasher! I used to go to a pawn shop before a big gig and buy a $70.00 bass. Play it for one song near the end of the set and Smash the Fs out of it!!!! Finish with Main bass.
I put a polka dot pick guard on my pink fender Strat and threw some hot rails on it and it’s the guitar people ask me to sell most often. It’s super punk.
You could try and find a good luthier and have them put some carbon fiber rods and a decent truss rod. And make a video on the subject, I mean, we're as your audience would apreciate. Probably the guitar makers and repair shops would apreciate it too
Someone 100% could make you a 7st, 24f Strat neck to spec, and they’d even do it with a trussrod if you asked nicely! Hope this one actually sees the upgrade at some point, I kinda love it. 🤞
If you're gonna throw in a bunch of upgrades, just get a Warmoth body in pink, a pickguard off etsy and whatever else you want. That would be one high quality instrument.
All of those problems are on pretty much every three-quarter/kids guitar. I bought a Kawasaki Pro and it didn't have the truss rod, the nut is 💩, and the bridge wasn't put in the right spot. I put Gotoh tuners on it and a tele bridge of some kind off ebay, but yeah, the neck will never be perfect, although it's a little thicker than that one
Incorrect, the most metal guitar is similar but its an acoustic and it is played by a viking with a pick for a thumbnail. If you know what video I’m talking about, props. If not, look up zakk wylde hello kitty, I promise you wont be disappointed.
lmao, i have 3 guitars in my collection, all of which are customed to the My Little Pony theme and are made to make heavy metal. I also customed the strap for my 8-string guitar with more ponies.
At this point, I'd just buy a warmouth neck and be done with it. You've already come this far so you might as well finish it off. Probably worth more with the new neck because you can call it a partscaster.
They just didn't add it, I have a cheap electric I use for.. experiments and destructive tendencies I got for $100, it sounds fine but it's neck is wonky too lol it came with a cheap amp even! It's a little small but not kid sized too, genuinely was impressed when it got here
Would you like to buy a My Pretty Pony Rainbow Dash custom, with glittery pickups, and a handmade strap, with "BF4Lyfe" spelled out in sequin hearts? I'd say about $1200 worth of modifications would make it sound as sweet as it looks!
I so badly wish this guitar was good lol. New neck potentially incoming? 🤔
Honestly yeah, just get a new neck and paint the headstock pink
YES
Yo bro they even copied the Agufish name too.
It looks like the hole is there , they just didn't put rod in? Can't you just put a rod into the neck? Or even have the hole drilled and a rod installed ? Would it just be cheaper and easier to put a new neck on it? A Warmoth flamed maple neck would make that problem a thing of the past. ***Edit*** oh... I read that the fret board has to come off first. Well guys , go ahead and let me have it.
check out warmoth!
If someone sold me a guitar without a truss rod, I would develop truss issues.
You, you are a legend.
Badam tsst
take my like and get out
That’s such a mood.
mim
"forgot the trussrod?!?!" That's an impressive failure.
That's like selling a car then coming back to the buyer 2 months later yelling "Brooo, we forgot to put the rims on!"
@@nickphaux More like "bro we forgot ur front and rear axles"
😭😭
Do all guitars have that ?
@@zdranganell lol
I'm sure there's a custom shop out there who will make a neck for that. Might cost you a few hundred unfortunately lol
100% worth it
I would absolutely spend that if it's for a hello kitty 7 string
Just buy a seven string, sand it and spray paint the hello kitty design. It'll be better
If it’s a bolt on guitar he can literally just use any neck off of most bolt-ons as long as things match up and it fits
You could also alternatively do a truss rod "replacement". I've seen a video where someone cut off the fretboard, swapped out the truss rod, and glued back on the fretboard on like an old Telecaster.

This man watches my channel 😂
@@agufishyou can get the fingerboard off with a clothing iron and then put a flame maple fretboard on for extra pizaz
If I call you a nerd I would get called a dumbass, so I won't say anything 🤐
If the guitarist comes out on stage with this, you’re not making it out of the pit alive.
The crowd would go insane lol
I’m laughing hard…
Mine is a bright yellow Ibanez.
the most metal guitar
hello kitty
It would make the perfect april fools tho
No truss rod? Hold the press. Stop right there. 🤦♂️
It’s actually a great deal. Vigier always forget the truss rod too and they want 10x the price!
@@martyshwaartz971wait what!?!?😂
I can only ever think of The Doo when I see this guitar. Honestly his signature at this point
True lmao
Nice to see a TheDooo enjoyer
Yep
yess
One of my favorite TH-cam guitarist, I have his guitar tone programmed in my Marshall Code 50, Absolutely love it.
@@ALEX-Extreme Legend
"Where else are you gonna find a pink guitar with a hello kitty pick guard?"
I can only think of one person.
TheDooo
"Ascend" plays quietly in the distance.
Yup same here
Adding the hello kitty paint job to any decent 7 string would have been way easier and cheaper 😂
Right? This guy replaced the pickups, bridge, nut and soon to be the neck in order to keep the stock pick guard?
The Ali Exprexx custom shop 💀
you can make a hello kitty pick guard at nearly any sign company for like $50 and you can paint a strat pink....so, that might have been a cheaper route.
im sorry but forgetting the truss rod in a $300 guitar is a huge fail. i will never order a guitar off AE.
Let alone in a 600$ guitar lol
no one is buying a guitar off ali express 😂
The Dooo needs to know about this
I agreee as a dooo fan I shall thiiis with three i’s and no other letters except N
dude, Warmoth 7string neck roasted flame maple with stainless steel frets and you’re GOLDEN. you could easily get them to paint the headstock to match the body too.
Its no hello kitty chug machine though
25:23 - 25:36 I love when he scratching it, especially when he scratches the back and goes like up (like reverse? lol)
A refret will straighten the neck, as long as the luthier knows that's what you want to do. If it's bowing in, they can use frets with thicker beads to spread the fret slot. After you do several frets, it'll start to flatten. If it bows the other way, they can use thinner beads.

Lol honestly I bet you could find an ESP neck and just slap it on there
There's a hellokitty guitar in my hardcore/punk scene. I have no clue who owns it. I just see it every few shows and I LOVE seeing it.
That's like building a car and forgetting the axles lol

Warmoth DOES have 7-string necks, just not anything fitting the strat look

Imagine being at a cannibal corpse concert and u c only hello kitty guitars and the drums are pink with a hello kitty logo on the base drum
Best thing to do is built your own hello kitty guitar from scratch
Either with a Strat styled seven string guitar or a DIY Kit
This has been my dream guitar for 3 years now! Unfortunately the original is sooooooo expensive since its limited.

Ps. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS EDVASIAN YAAAAAAAAH🎉
The truss rod is at the bottom of the neck, yes, you need to dismantle it
Under the pick guard
A little lighter fluid is all you need.🔥🎸
I would PAY to watch that video!
What pedal are you using there for the metal sound?

Don’t just think of The Doo, it literally reminds me of him 🙏🏻
Just reach out to some YT'er who fixes guitars to have a truss rod put in. It would be a cool colab
TheDooo needs a 2nd one of these lol
immediately thought of him
It may sound trash, but it would make for a great black metal album since the sound setup for bm is usually like fisher price instruments recorded through a rotary phone

Two options. Have a truss rod and graphite rods under the fingerboard. Or easier method, turn it into a metal slide guitar.😎👍✨
I mean you can literally just order a new neck with a truss rod. It's not that wild. Make that Hello Kitty guitar into a beast.
Take the neck off and look at the other end for a trust rod adjustment cause alot of cheap companys put them in the wrong side so you cant adjust it unless you pull it off the body
what pedal do you use to make it sound like that?
Its a smasher!

Finish with Main bass.
the guitar : 😊
The Sound : 💀👻🗿
Man yt rec is not reading the room😭 i was watching the hello kitty nurder case and this was recomended right under the video😭😭
The orange in the back is so awesome I want one
Are you sure the truss rod nut is't where the neck joints to the body? Have You unscrued the neck?
So... the less costly/timely/better option is buy any other seven string guitar and have it painted with Hello Kitty?
The most innocent looking guitar ended up being the opposite 💀
Buy a Squier "Debut," replace the pickups/pickguard with that "Hello Kitty," replace the neck and bridge with a 7-string setup and you're done.
I put a polka dot pick guard on my pink fender Strat and threw some hot rails on it and it’s the guitar people ask me to sell most often. It’s super punk.

Put screws in the existing tuner Holes....you can put a truss rod in from the back of the neck...
Nah I’m just getting a new roasted maple neck haha
My sister in law gave me a alliexpress SG knock off. Put epiphone bridge, pots, pick ups. And though it's not a great player it sounds massive.
my little cousin had one of those because her grandparents bought it for her to compete with me.... sounded great though for the defects
Dude I would absolotely LOVE to play that shit on stage so hard
Someone 100% could make you a 7st, 24f Strat neck to spec, and they’d even do it with a trussrod if you asked nicely! Hope this one actually sees the upgrade at some point, I kinda love it. 🤞
If you're gonna throw in a bunch of upgrades, just get a Warmoth body in pink, a pickguard off etsy and whatever else you want. That would be one high quality instrument.
You could buy literally any guitar and put a sticker on it
When you said "it sounds like sh*" and bleeped it out with the notes, it instantly reminded me of intro "Freedom" by Jimi Hendrix
All of those problems are on pretty much every three-quarter/kids guitar. I bought a Kawasaki Pro and it didn't have the truss rod, the nut is 💩, and the bridge wasn't put in the right spot.

Tije to mod it with warmoth aftermsrket neck
You can get contact a luthier to install the truss rod
Where there’s a Warmoth, there’s a way. I would get a new neck and rock that thing.
sometimes the truss rod is at the bottom of the neck, try unscrewing it to see if it's there.
I have the fender hello kitty guitar and I love it so much
Incorrect, the most metal guitar is similar but its an acoustic and it is played by a viking with a pick for a thumbnail. If you know what video I’m talking about, props. If not, look up zakk wylde hello kitty, I promise you wont be disappointed.
How do you forget a truss rod??
Man, might as well just order a hello kitty pickguard and put it on any other pink guitar and call it a day.
The hands that painted something that came from ali express probably were in a sweatshop 😭😭😭
lmao, i have 3 guitars in my collection, all of which are customed to the My Little Pony theme and are made to make heavy metal. I also customed the strap for my 8-string guitar with more ponies.
Yoo what do you think about the new Harley Benton 2024 series, ima just say dam upgrades are better than any Harley I’ve ever seen 🎉
I consulted on the specs and colors, so I'm kind of biased lol
It's ironic how the headstock says "Agufish high-integrity" but everyone knows Agufish as a man of very low integrity.
Kick a man when he's down. 😂
At this point, I'd just buy a warmouth neck and be done with it. You've already come this far so you might as well finish it off.
Probably worth more with the new neck because you can call it a partscaster.
“Were skateboreds we always take ur girl”
I feel like a better solution is to buy a good guitar and just paint it pink and make your own custom pick guard
This definitely needs a Warmoth neck or whatever custom neck or something. Go all out with a roasted flamed maple neck with pink inlays 😂
I'd never feel metal with that axe, no matter how low it's tuned or how low I hung it on the strap. More power to you
God I swear guitar people speak a different freaking language to the rest of us
They just didn't add it, I have a cheap electric I use for.. experiments and destructive tendencies I got for $100, it sounds fine but it's neck is wonky too lol it came with a cheap amp even! It's a little small but not kid sized too, genuinely was impressed when it got here
My friend has had one of these years before i saw this 💀
Try buy a Brazilian guitar, Tagima or Seizi, it's totally budget, but the woods are wonderfull, and are very well made instruments.
Would you like to buy a My Pretty Pony Rainbow Dash custom, with glittery pickups, and a handmade strap, with "BF4Lyfe" spelled out in sequin hearts? I'd say about $1200 worth of modifications would make it sound as sweet as it looks!
Find a pink Stratocaster, handmake and paint your own "Hello Kitty" pick guard, maybe a Floyd Rose?
How hard is it to find a 7 string neck for a strat?
You could ask a luthier to build a custom neck and keep the locking tuners.
I find myself watching Stephanie talk about shows more then I watch the show…idk why 😅
A truss rod could be retrofitted
One thing I never understood...even though it doesn't apply here.... Why people get locking tuners when they also have a locking trem & locking nut.
What's trussrod? What's neck?
