    This instrument concept is wonderful. It’s not genius since keyboards that have similar functionality have been around for decades, but what a great idea. Especially for amateurs. Well done!

  •  ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love the idea. I played a few very small gigs and for this reason this concept makes so much sense. i mean how convenient is that, you arrive with a micstand and a gigbag and that's it! i love it

    I'll start with this isn't a product for me, but it still makes more sense at the price range than an Acoustasonic does even if were the same price not hundreds more..
    That said, even if I was in the market for such a thing, the required app is a 100% no go. I hate products that require app activation. It's just a way to say "hey this product you bought isn't really yours until you set up an account, a profile, register your device (so we can mine your data and sell it to anyone we want). " Then they are going to use that application to push notifications to your phone, and email you marketing crap forever.
    Overall it's not a product I hate, but you rightly pointed out the things that need refining. There are some good ideas here and the shortcomings could be worked around, but I don't think it's quite to the mass-market appeal yet.

    Got the Nexg 2N version and the Nova Go from Enya. These instruments are phenomenal. I never got so much bang for the buck from a guitar. And the quality of what I get for my money is way above other established brand names.

    This shows why I like your reviews. You absolutely don't hide the flaws of the item, thanks! Promising product, but I feel it needs improvement in the areas you mentioned. But if things like tuner sucks, I am not convinced that a company I have never heard can push this product to great territory
    Edit. About the real word application. I still think having acoustic amp makes more sense than this. They usually have mic input. That way you can have reliable guitar and mic. Also can you somehow have the mic on stand? Like what if you want to play and sing at the same time

  • @scottbecker3485
    @scottbecker3485 ปีที่แล้ว

    Finally a review of this guitar that is a) not dumb, b) full of interesting info for real-life musicians/buskers, and c) entertaining. :-) This guitar - in its next generation haha, „NexG“ - will sweep the busking market for sure. What will it have? A useable tuner, a couple electric simulations (clean and dirty) that actually sound electric, no „activation“ crap, and a slightly more powerful speaker/amp. Oh, and great quality control, as in reliability(!), for no busker in his/her right mind would go trudging around the world carrying this guitar if he/she couldn‘t rely on it working all the time. Another review found that the upper body curve on the guitar rattled (resonated) when certain low notes were played. That doesn‘t seem to be the case here, so that‘s a relief. My only remaining question is this: Would it still sound OK when tuned all the way down to C# standard tuning (maybe with thicker-gauge strings)? I tune all my guitars to C#, so that would be really cool to know, but I don‘t suppose you still have the guitar, do you?

    I've been listening and playing guitar music for many years. Love Taylor guitars and many high end classicals. I think that this guitar sounds way too tin sounding with a buzz. I don't think I like the ten minute cut out, that's just weird. You are right about that. Any way I'll stick with old school. You can always buy peddles if you need some effects. I think it is more of a novelty than a quality instrument. I'm not buying one.

    When you took out the microphone 😂 I could see that as a cool practice guitar to lean up against the wall. I definitely see it for a minimalist busker depending on how loud the speaker is, but I wouldn’t gig with that guitar. I like how companies are coming out with these, but they need to make some thing. That has the capabilities of Ableton looping very easy to use on the spot, and incorporate Midi like the triple play. Then I would buy something like that. I don’t care about built-in effects or built-in loops or any of that nonsense. Give me those capabilities and you would have something special.

    Cool Video. Cool Instrument. Just my 2 cents: I think the price is absolutely ok. I have a Yamaha Silent Guitar and what you get here for 100 bucks more is impressive. Some more use cases: I am just a living room hobby player. I take the silent guitar, because I like the E-Guitar shape more. I am more used to it, than a big acoustic. And I can practise with head phones. A friend of mine plays gigs and uses the silent guitar, too because of the feedback problems with acoustics on stage.

    I can see absolutely the use case for a system like that, but I don’t like music equipment that need to be connected to an app. What if the company stops the app service in a year or two or decides you have to pay for that app in the future? You loose a lot of features or have additional costs you didn’t expect as you were buying.
    As a stand-alone guitar, go to Yamaha silent guitar and get the real deal for 789€ (price of today in Europe)…

    I feel like this instrument is a little pointless in that it creates more issues and hurdles in playing live. Nice acoustic guitars of similar sizes are already sold at many stores for comparable prices (and without the need for an app, charging, or digital doohickeys). All of them without the need for electricity or any apps. Still, the review is much appreciated! Thank ya for showing peeps what this thing really is, what it sounds like, and what it has to offer (even if it ain't my jam haha). It's just a hair waaay too twangy and heavy on the treble for pleasant playing or listening

    The only thing I don’t like is the look. I actually don’t like the top opening. I’m probably still going to buy one but I’m thinking of ways I can use a stretch fabric to cover that opening so that it’s still light weight and still able to come apart and packed away. However I won’t be traveling with it much so that’s not a big deal to me. The look is important though. I love looking at my guitars.

    Hi. Ich habe letzte Woche einen Party Gig gehabt und den Folks den Sound um die Ohren gefotzt. Die App nutze ich wenig. In Kombi mit der Drumapp loopz stürme ich den Raum mit dem Beat an und nur nem Mikroständer. Zwei Songs und die Party hüpft. Kleine Sessions machen Laune und jeder findet es cool. Meine Bünde schnarren nicht. Das Mikro ändert sich mit dem gewählten Sound. Wabert ein bissi mit und macht ein leichtes Vibrato. Es funktioniert am besten, wenn man weiter weg geht.... So wie man eben ein Mikro benutzt. Es liebt Batterien. Der Depp steht halt immer davor. Hab schon mit ganz anderen Qualitäten Musik gemacht und das hat auch gerummst. Preis. Ja ist happig. Mit war der Spaß das Wert und ich habe es nicht bereut. Der Akku hält unterschiedlich lang. Je nach Auslastung, Lautstärke und was sonst noch mit drüber läuft. Den Ladeständer habe ich nicht gekauft. Ich spiele sie immer mit Gurt. PS. Die komischen Anhänger sind für den Koffergurt, den du dann als Gitarrengurt hernehmen kannst. Bissi fummelig aber gute Idee. Das System ist noch ausbaufähig. Gerade was Sounds angeht kann es nicht sein dass da nur die 5 Stück rein gepackt werden. Jede kleine Line 6 soundbox kann mehr. Und ja der Verzerrer ist mehr als sch.... Rock in!🤗👍😊

They advertise it as a silence guitar but most reviews dont demonstrated, including you the use of the earphones that come with it. I want to practice and not to disturb people, but so far the guitar is not silence. Also the app is not an easy app you dont see the chords your playing. I used to have a Jamstik trainer guitar that come with a nice app, the app was discontinue, and the guitar only had 5 frets, come on, the smart guitars really suck.
