    It’s wild how only being a half step off on two notes of this riff completely ruin it. Thanks for showing this beautiful Guitar anyway.

    I just picked this up from Reverb. I'm super psyched, and I think it will pair well with my gt-1000. I play in b standard anyways, so might as well make it official with a baritone!

    Fantastic video! Thanks for posting an incredibly detailed review. I was wondering if thie Kenny Hickey Solo-6 model was neck heavy at all or if it hangs from a guitar strap similar to a regular scale Solo-6?

      I didn't notice any serious neck dive. you should be fine with a good strap. I am glad you like the video.

    The cover for the selector switch cavity is basically the same one they used for the battery cavity on the old ATX guitars ...

    Yours is different than mine! My kill switch and 3-way are swapped, but the my 3-way switch is not in line with the volume and tone knobs, but rather offset. My Seymour Duncan pickup also looks different. It’s not a chrome cover like yours. Oh, and the headstock is a completely different shape! I got mine in June of 2021, so they must’ve changed it quite a bit since then!

    @sohft ปีที่แล้ว

    Did I miss where you mentioned the material for the frets? If not, I think you should add that information going forward. I'm assuming they're nickel silver. If this guitar came with stainless steel frets that would make it incredible.

    • @GeorgeVGuitars
      @GeorgeVGuitars  ปีที่แล้ว

      Im only going to mention it if they are Stainless which I think they are not here.

    • @guyincognito320
      @guyincognito320 ปีที่แล้ว

      Schecters have stainless steel on guitars with the fret markers that are that vaguely S-shaped, which is made with two thin bars, such as on the Solo-II Supreme, Silver Mountain, etc. So all the steel fretted Schecters are on the (imo) ugly guitars that I'd personally never buy, plus they're 14-1500 dollars.

      I am not sure that a baritone with a sustainiac is a great choice for a beginner. If it is not your first guitar and only guitar I guess its ok.

      @GeorgeVGuitars  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@sleepyrose4815 You can play it right away I would just not recommend it for exercises because of the big stretch - it is a baritone. And in order to use the sustainiac you need some basic string muting skill. But let me put it this way - when I was a beginner i bought the 8 String Ibanez M80m meshuggah and that was 29.75 inch crazy long scale and I enjoyed it. So if money is no issues, buy it :>

      GET A CHEAP ACOUSTIC AND OR A CHEAP SQUIRE STRAT AS A FIRST GUITAR , these serious metal guitars with heavier strings you shuld work ur way up to, and you still need a good amp and effects to make them sound good as well as being a good enuff player

    • @GeorgeVGuitars
      @GeorgeVGuitars  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@IncantationNYDM That is one of the things I strongly advice against, because I sell these cheap strats at the shop I work in. Most people want them because they are extremely cheap but sound like a can of bees for metal. I sell them to kids that like Nirvana, blues, grunge and such. For metal I always strongly advice people not to spend money on such a cheap strat with single coil pickups for metal. I did a video for beginerw on a budget recently about the LTD EC-10 and why you should buy a cheaper guitar with a decent amp for metal. But not all the way down to a single coil strat.

    So you buy a Kenny Hickey signature guitar and play Black No. 1 and then you ask about Vinnland? Do some research man.
