      Scott Collier as a lefty who plays righty, I can say product selection was my main driving factor for learning right handed, and besides you use both hands a lot any way so it's not even that big of a learning curve, I have three left handed mates who have done the same, in fact I know more leftys who play right handed than I do leftys who play lefty.

    • @cybertronguy98

    The blindfold challenge really is the best way to do these completely objective comparisons. I can't believe how my perception about what I'm playing changes as soon as I know what it is! I guess that's the power of brand & the emotional impact of just liking the idea of owning something. However, choosing a new guitar is about picking the "best" one for you, AND fulfilling some deep desire to own something just because it is what it is! Does that make sense? Sorry - got a bit deep there!!

    • @DaigoParry
      @DaigoParry 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      CaptAnderton
      The emotional impact of wanting to own something is totally true. Looks does play a part.
      I was looking for an archtop and someone offered me an Aria Pro II FA71 for $130. That one sounded the best to me although it wasn’t set up properly. I also tried an Ibanez Joe Pass Emperor, a 60s Hofner, and an Eastman AR610. The cheapest guitar actually sounded the best to me, but I ended up forking $1,000 for the Eastman. I loved the way it looks, I spent so much time taking photos of it on my phone. I really liked the idea of owning a beautiful guitar. I step into my room and it’s the first thing I see. But when I play it, I couldn’t get the Wes Montgomery tone that I could with the Aria. I simply accepted the compromise....

      @thenorthproject8465 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I like these tests, recently a drummer turned guitarist, i used this technique, well i shut my eye's and attemptedto play, to purchase my new guitar which i thought was going to be a strat or tele of some kind, hopefully a fender. After spending 5 hours in my local music store playing everything from £100 to £4200 I walked out with a Gibson 2018 faded in worn Bourbon. A total surprise because i have never looked at Gibson's after i held one at the age of 14 and thought they were too heavy and being a Clapton fan was not the right look or guitar for me, but for me it felt the best sounded the best and looks lovely, thanks for giving me the right idea's to help me choose the right guitar for me!!! Keep up the good work =)

      You pay for the aesthetics and feel in a PRS core. the SE and core have basically the same wood and everything else. Swap the pups from a core PRS into and SE and I'd be absolutely shocked if someone could tell the difference in a test like this. That doesn't mean the core isn't significantly better in many other ways. I'd pay 2k more for: better details, more dramatic body carve, locking tuners, MUCH better sustain, better electronics, excellent warranty and customer service, more socially responsible (happy US employees), more bragging rights, plus having a badass instrument that can absolutely "do no wrong".
      If you think they are similar, you should probably try a PRS for yourself. Also, core PRS remain the only guitar that I haven't ever seen even a half-way convincing fake.

    Fun video guys! I own a few S-type guitars including a G&L and the Passive Treble and Bass control on it lets you dial in a more traditional vintage tone - something which has been overlooked in your G&L videos. The push-pull pot also makes it sound like a faux Tele. You should really do a video on G&Ls and cover the set of features on offer especially on the S-500! 12" neck, thicker neck, heavier body (Tribute models), improved tremolo system, MFD pickups (ceramic instead of Alnico) and the quirky wiring. Leo Fender was most proud of his G&L guitars!

    What I would like to see is something with old vs new strings. As a lot of guitar shops have guitars hanging up with old horrible strings and they make me not like them! Maybe mix it up with cheaper guitars with new strings and expensive ones with old strings - but somehow without knowing!
    As I think strings can make a big difference to the tone of a guitar and might make some people avoid or buy a guitar!

    So, blindfolded, you ranked a Chapman guitar alongside a rare Fender Custom Shop that has been hand built by a skilled luthier.
    That should be a proud moment, right there.

    By the way, the youtube audience needs a review for the new flying V from Joe Bonamassa!!!!! PLEASE HURRY UP WITH THIS VIDEO!!!

    That Chapman was pretty sweet too...they're not usually my style but im seriously warming up to them to the point where I could really see myself investing in a good one....even the more affordable ones seem killer...it's just a bit different because I guess im a traditional fender guy, but sometimes something a bit outside of your normal comfort zone is such a turn on...something about rob's guitars are just beautiful...it's like meeting a woman in the most unexpected way, and you can only say wow.....

    Great exercise in subjectivity...not surprised the Shawbucker Strat was liked as that is a great harmonic humbucker as in my guitar I should know😉

    I really liked the sound of the Chapman. My only issue with Chapman guitars is the reverse headstock which I hate. What was that distortion pedal they were using?

    What a great video. I love these blindfold videos. I love Chappers and the Captain in a video! I liked the whole quick turn around speed dating sort of thing. It was really a fun video. It's Rob's turn now with.... flying v's? That would be a laugh. :)

  • @thehound2161
    @thehound2161 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The speed aspect was limiting and distracting and caused confusion in rankings. Where did the 1st Red Fender sampled on the clean go? That is what Lee was referring to as part of "the 1st and second one" The Cream G&L S-500 also "sounded great". He had a moment with that guitar that stood out on the clean. Another go at the S-type without a ridiculous 10 second rule is in order. Basically neck feel is the determining factor in a speed contest.

  • @erwinc.9117
    @erwinc.9117 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honestly I think this is a great way to choose a new guitar! If there's one that can jump out and make you say "I love it!" when you are blind folded and have only ten seconds to try each guitar, then you know it's the one!

    I have to travel round to teach guitar and that video on the mini amps was very eye opening! I was considering buying one to take to my students. Do more vids on cheapo and beginners' gear!

  • @thehound2161
    @thehound2161 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The speed was a bit too quick. It was more of a which neck has the best rolled edges challenge. What model was the blue w/green pickguard? It must have been a custom shop reissue/distressed/relic? The other person switching the PUP's was good. No in between position was not good.

    Something about Fender Stratrs their sound is unique, I personally love Strats, as for the Fender Squires there is a chap in the UK who clearly stated the big issue with them is setup, and as you stated Lee they are mass produced, thus the QC is not a 100% but when they are set properly they sound brilliant. but your 54 Reissue is absolutely stunning both looks and sounds, great video again guys,

  • @blairlane1614
    @blairlane1614 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Too true, Lee. There will always be someone who will think, and immediately pontificate in the comments, that any time a Chapman is in any way referenced in an Anderton's video, it is merely an attempt to flog more Chapman guitars.
    I wouldn't worry about the few who take issue.

  • @Ameen2310
    @Ameen2310 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Next up due for the series: PRS (even include copies for a twist), 335 style semi-hollow bodies, Les Paul and Strat Blindfold tests with Chappers cuz they would be very different, and perhaps an acoustic guitar blindfold test too.

  • @SnaketheJake87
