SX guitars are FANTASTIC! Amazing what you get for the price.
JESUS WHAT A SOLO....
God bless you Dave, that was fabulous.
Jesus is Lord
I am lucky to have 1 of SX. The sound is very nice to me..many peoples told me that guitar's tone is very good..I purchased it on 2008 before I was married on 2010. Since then due to very busy of work I left the guitar in my house for almost 10 years. My enthusiasm for guitar are regained last year. Now I got new Gibson SG and Fender strat squire as well but I love more on my SX not only because of the quality but also because of the history. You know it is just feels nice now is 2021, I am still around with my wife and two daughters. For me my SX guitar is a part of my small family.
Dave man, you never need to apologise for your mood. You are only human. God speed brother.
I just ordered a SX VTG Strat because of you playing it in this video!!!! Hell yeah, brother!!!
I already had a Strat Fender Mex and a Classic Vibe, and I much prefer my SX VTG, for half the price.
It looks good, plays great and the neck is amazing.
The only upgrade it may need in the future is a set of new pickups and tuners.
Is it really better than a CV? CV are great the reason I hesitate now is Fender is so unreasonable now with pricing, Squiers at $500 and Mexican Fenders at $1000. They are full of it. 15:46
Sorry you're having a rough time Dave, I hope the playing has helped to get some of the pain out, it's a great gift to be able to play such powerful music when you're not feeling well.
Bob what can I say? Like Dave said a Legend, hope you've not left yourself guitarless! I have an SX Tele, natural wood pearl scratchplate with all the comfort cutaways. very pleased with it
Yes the pleasure spreads!
Good grief - it took me several minutes to realise the video had reached the end so transported was I by the music Dave that it just kept repeating in my head. Magical.
Agreed, and I would strongly recommend Not cooking anything while listening to Dave, as the time warp doesn't work on food...
I own a sx jazzbass and it plays and sounds like a dream. It nice to see an sx on your channel dave.
I bought an old SX JBass too ( for 80€ ! ) after watching the bass player from the band Kruhangbin playing one (check out Rig Rundown videos , it's a really great band ) , really cool bass , equivalent to a Squier Vintage Modified , but I find the pick-ups are a bit weak: low output with quite a bit of hum , now I'm waiting to find a used set of great pick-ups to put in it ( Nordstrand... ).
Are the pick-ups on yours any good ?
@@DOPEDOGTOPDOG the picks up are good i got one of the "higher end models" that came stock with alnico magnet pickups and a high mass bridge( bad ass bridge clone) . I havent really fealt the need to change pick ups.they only thing i did was file out the ends of the frets .
@@DOPEDOGTOPDOG I got the translucent blue SX JB75 - added some Ironstone Alnicos for another £48. Made a few YT of the various mods - high mass Fender bridge to reduce neck dive. New Rotosounds. I love it.
I also got a J & D Surf Green - just for the colour - then added a set of EMG J pickups - so almost noiseless but decent output and no need to shield. Love them.
The model name is actually SST-57. The other one you have, that is dead as a doornail is a SST-62, since it has a rosewood fretboard. I too have a lovely 57 in candy apple red with insanely flamed maple cap and neck(imagine my surprise when I opened the cheap carton it came in). I leveled and polished the frets right away(mine are pretty big jumbos, which I like), then got my hands on some Artec GVS60 single coils(staggered Alnico5 polepieces). I addressed the tuning stability by changing the crappy tuners with some Kluson Vintage Lockheads(I highly recommend them), installed a new graphtech tusq nut and changed the saddles to ones with rollers on them. The stock switch was very stiff(same as yours), so I yanked it out and put a vintage 5-way(came with a bigger switch tip, which I also like). As for the rest of the electronics: 220K large diameter alpha pots all around, wired 50’s style. My SX strat now plays and sounds glorious - I dare anyone who is a Fender-fanboy play it, but I won’t be responsible for any damage to your jaw when it hits the floor :)
Can you make a video with this guitar?
Very nice sounding guitar played by a maestro!! Awesome jams Dave!! Loved it!! Thanks Bob!!
Thank you from the heart for your sincerity and openness in your videos, you are an inspiration to continue playing and thank you for encouraging the purchase of that guitar, it has been to see you play and I already wanted that tone ... you do not always have to play with boutique guitars to sound good, the magic is in you....
My Man, I've seen them all and I'm SPEECHLESS. Well, Skill and Taste for sure. This is one of the very few times that I have clicked on the bell of a sight.
When i started to use this model, my thumb stop hurting. I love that neck.
I have an SX P bass with an alder body and maple neck, with a maple cap fretboard. It’s an amazing bass, and in my opinion is the best bang for the buck out there. These SX instruments also make excellent platforms for upgrades.
Also, thanks for checking in with us regarding your mood. Thanks for powering through and continuing to put out great content all the time. I appreciate you!
so true on the upgrades mines gold i love it
I had a SX vintage 62 strat a couple of years ago with a rosewood fretboard and for a $200 AUD guitar with a gig bag it was a amazing guitar and another one I wish I didn’t sell
I got the same series but in black with a rosewood neck. Amazing guitars. I also have a SX Tele, they are great instruments for the price
Yeeéeeeeeeesssss at laaaaassst, now you know that SX is the king brand of the underdogs😄😄😄
Now you need the vintage sx telecaster, even better than the strat👍
Are they better than Harley Benton?
Really?
keep on keeping on dave ,the bad days can only get better,im a bi-polar,adhd sufferer ,so i know how you feel at times..awesome playing as usual,,,,all the best.......stay safe.........dougie
Some great guitar soloing Dave. And thx for the informative video. Was considering buying of the these (although it looks like the (we're forced) to change their headstock design) and decided to go ahead with the purchase. Nice playing. Running it through my Marantz 2070 and high end speakers. rock on.
"The guitar wants to be a pencil" ive had a few guitars like that lol
Legends on the wall looking down at a Legend
SX one of those brands never owned but always wanted 😮.. hear the teles are good value shame about the black one like all budget guitars that's the chance you take! Incredible playing considering how you feel, thanks for another six string delight!☺
Love the white guitar, Mike Mccready is one of my favorites, very hendrix influenced
Man I love a maple board... don't leave it lying around, it may end up swiped by me! 😂
Fabuloso, Dave! Abrazo desde Buenos Aires. Me compré una American Alder. Ahora a hacerla sonar!
Absolutely love your playing at 13:35 Gave me goosebumps all over the place 👌🏻👌🏻 cheers mate love your videos
Finally a guitar that i can afford 😁. I have one, and love it.
Holy Jesus mackerel eating Christ, that guitar brings out something special in you. Incredible stuff
Have the Tele model of that guitar, same colors. Has P90's that I thought I was going to change. Not so far. They sound way better than expected and I play towards the clean side a lot. Did need the maintenance you did (not the bridge though). Also Brass nut, angled switch plate. May do the tuners someday. Less than $200 in it and I play it everyday it's so good. 2 Years old now. Good to see one get plugged into the real deal!
Dave you started off like Dave from floyd but then just turned into Dave,that sound that TONE i had to listen twice,brilliant as usual
MAN YOU PLAY LIKE A GOD
What a fantastic friend Bob is. Not many people can say they have a friend like Bob. I love my SX Strat. Great Video Dave. I can listen all day to your playing. Cheers for sharing.
Christ if there is anyone who deserves to be a decorated touring guitarist, it's you.
Dave finally got an SX. Good on Dave!
Crazy and amanzig solo. You are an inspiration Dave. Thks
thank you dave, i was thinking of getting a one of these, now i’m getting one for sure
much love from new mexico. hope all is well ,love your playing dave
Wow, Dave! You almost reached the threshold of another dimensional space.... but you backed down at the last second. No problem, I'm sure you'll be all set to try again after a short intermission. You were ripping!:-)
Holy crumpet rope!! I have literally just come home after trying two SX VTG model Strats out in my local little uber cool and retro music shop on the High Street in Clitheroe, Lancs. Its primarily a very well stocked vinyl collectors paradise and i guess music based memorabilia and fings and he even has those retro 60's style stand alone turntables with built in speaker etc. But I digress! He sells guitars which is of course the most important thing, and amongst the affordable but acceptable Tanglewood Crossroads acoustics and other similar sort of 000 and parlour type offerings he has the two "American swamp ash" (as stated on the sticker) natural bodied examples. One has a rosewood neck and one a maple, both bound too! Both looked fantastically well built and felt great to play acoustically with a noticeable resonant vibe throughout the timber. The bodies I should add were both 2 piece the rosewood one sorting a red torty pickguard and the maple a white pearly job. So for less than two hundred of our Englandish dollar pounds I think i may end up paying said shop another visit real soon!! Many thanks for helping out with this vid and im sure the owd geezer who runs the wonderful little high street den of goodness against all the odds that befall our independent shopkeepers will be very grateful too!
I found myself here again. No words to say, you said too much with your guitar. Real art, real music makes everyone quiet and makes them think. I thought so much. Thanks.
Nice to see one of the sx's in your hands, something I could afford ahaha
You play so beautifully. I miss the portrait of the Dog by the door.
re the pencil guitar quite likely the frets aren't level above the 12th. I would change the tremblock and put a solid steel one in there. One of the less expensive ones. And change the pickups. The Wilkinson tremblock and along with the alnico V 6single coils as on the Vintage Icon V6 would likely bring it to life. Am pretty sure it's alder (4 or more pieces=lots of glue).
I've got a n SX Furrian Tele, and a lot of work had to go into it. Now it's on par with a Fender MIM model. Next time around I'm going for JHS Vintage guitars.
Certainly great guitars! I own a new SX SST57 Strat with maple neck and basswood body. Full sounding and balanced, smooth tone with enough high end. Light weight. The middle pickup reminds me of a Tele and it's great for clean strumming! Not sure if I change the pickups yet.
Besides this guitar being fantastic, the Gravycaster is looking utterly fantastic.
Some solid 'Cortez The Killer' vibes there Señor Dave.
There's a few sx dealers in my local area, with some nice looking guitars at very reasonable money. However every single sx I've tried has had sharp frets and a really extra thick poly finish.
I must have watched this a couple dozen times over the years. I just love listening to the emotions pour out of you with your music. It is moving! You really have a gift I am so envious of. I have this same guitar. I bought it just because of its beauty. The most beautiful neck out there, and personally like the bigger head stock. I never learned to play, I got my son and I guitars and was gonna learn together. He quickly left me behind and I never tried after he moved out. Its just been hanging on the wall for years. I need to sell it and want this video in my ad if its okay with you?
Amazing… that solo is a piece of art.
Lovely and awesome playing Dave, I hope you're well!
I have two sx teles and a P-Bass that I bought like 10 or more years ago. Nowadays I don't see European retailers for SX like I used to... Don't know where to get them nowadays.
Maestro, Master, Virtuoso
Hi Dave. Sorry you get the blues, as do I. Hey ho. I bought a Richwood Tele thinline ten years ago and honestly it's one of the best guitars I ever played!
I bought one of this 12 days ago, this same Vintage White model but it's a newer version which has a different logo in the headstock and the serial number in the neck plate instead of being in the back of the headstock. Apart from that, it seems to be exactly the same. Man.... I can not believe it, I have a real maple neck Fender American Standard from 2011, I had it 11 years with Dimarzios HS3/HS2/HS4 (bridge, middle, neck) with split coil tap switch, it sounded very nice with distortion in the stacked mode, but very dull with clean and the split coil didn't sound really really straty, close but too much compresed so I wanted something stratier so... I put in it a set of Fender Custom Shop 69s, I don't like mids so I wanted something scooped. I liked them pretty much until I got this SX... I don't know if I was just lucky and I happened to get a good one but, the SX I got is AMAZING. Almos perfect fret work, the fret dressing is perfect, and the pickups WTF I can not believe it. Pretty more scooped than the 69s, but in a good way, more lows and the highs are just different, better, less shril but present, less mids. It sounds amazing on everything, cleans, on the edge of braking, full gain... Am I dreaming?? Just the 69s pickups are more expensive than the whole guitar!! Of course the hardware is of not so good quality but it's ok. And the neck has a fret board instead of being one piece as the real Fender, but it's so well put together that it almost looks one piece. Really, am I dreaming or what? Since you've got a bad SX I'm wondering if it's just a matter of luck and you could end up with a good one or a bad one. Also, I don't know what's about the pickups, they measure jst 3.7K ohm each of them, that's pretty low, beyond any standard, but they sound amazing. I don't know I'm stuned. Ah!! and I took out the string trees, lubricated the nut and set up the tremolo really well, and I can use the tremolo pretty pretty well, not for dive bombing but for vibratos going from Gilmour to Malmsteen its pretty OK. I've set it to pull one whole steep on the G string. Amazing guitar, I could have 6 of this for the price of the Fender American Standard alone, and one more for the price of the 69s...
Here in Brazil SX guitars are really loved.. for it's price and usual quality. But, of course somethimes you get a dead guitar like that one you first got. A friend of mine did not like the sound of his sx 62 and got a new body for the neck he loved... and my oh my that guitar sings! Maybe it's just the body of your first one too...they have some of those in basswood, and some are just bad basswood.. I had a lovely american alder one, but the neck was a baseball bat...
Loved the way you walked around the corner near the end to hear the reflection s and ambience more
You sir could play rubber bands on a ruler and make it sound like Hendrix! Great vid and very nice guitar!
Wow! :') Nice interpretation buddy
No apologies needed Dave. The world seems to be in the same funk...
Dave...I saw an SX blonde neck with frets and tuners for sale for 75 bucks on craigslist.....could probably help that black strat.....I find replacement necks can do wonders for guitars...
Nice suggestion. Will keep it in mind
Absolutely mega Dave. You could fit my mood under a snake right now too so you’re not alone buddy
Thanks Dave for another great video. I hope you're doing okay. Your playing is incredible as always. I want to take up the guitar again and I'm trying to decide between and SX Legend HSS or a Yamaha Pacifica 112V. It's great to get a video of someone playing the SX to within an inch of it's life. I appreciate it. Either way I think I won't go too far wrong.
@Dave Simpson - the only man that gets you excited at looking at a Strat Copy :-) Having said that, the "fish eye" type lens is really weird on occasions - guitar necks look bent!! :-)
Half expected @Dave to go into the Monty Python "Vocational Counsellor" sketch..." It's dull. Dull. Dull. My God it's dull, it's so desperately dull and tedious and stuffy and boring and des-per-ate-ly DULL." at one point when talking about the reliced version :-)
And then he goes & plays some awesome stuff with "dead" strings... :-)
What you could try on the black Strat is to put on ridicolously heavy strings and then keep it in a lower tuning like C# Standard.
My white Harley Benton Jazzmaster-Copy never responded right with 9s or 10s. I had 8s on for a while, and the response was good, but the sound too thin, so I tried heavier strings, first 11s in D-Standard, now 12s in C# and it responds right and sounds like monster, while it plays like it has 10s on.
I know you dislike thick strings, but just spitballing ideas
Dave ,I have had every make of guitar you can think of,I currently play a Starforce USA,its the nuts.Dont give up on the other guitar,give it to me and I will make it breathe,trust me.Keep up with the great job you are doing.Cheers mate.
On a visit to England I got the 50s style SX Tele for £79 and it was awesome. Before flying back home to Asia I decided I'd get the 50s style Strat too and take both guitars home in my suitcase (I love bolt on necks!) I bagged a brand new black one for £49! (only bidder on Ebay), but sadly it didn't arrive until I'd already left for the airport (I think the seller delayed posting it due to sour grapes). After a few months I decided to sell it after having not even touching the thing. I sold it on Ebay for £89, so at least I made on it. I wish I'd had a chance to play it. I really wanted to try that neck!
Seven years after my SX episode I have just ordered a black SST57, which I'm going to mod into some kind of Clapton Strat. I found it on an online shopping site in Thailand at a discount price, which amounts to about £75 quid.
I had one like the black one paid the deposit at cash converters and left it in the shop never bothered it was one of the cheaper ones not the vintage series..firewood
Hi guys we know its VTG series but i really want to now that is this guitars full name SX SST57?
Sick playing as always Dave! Loved it
@davesimpson1986 I have a no-name strat that has a dead neck like your black sx. When I looked very very closely there is a very slight gap under the frets where they look like their not pressed in hard enough. Take a really close look at the frets and see if there high, if so then only a refret will sort it.
Tagima. Got one cheap put locking tuners on it and graphite the nut it will smoke my fender and actually stays in tune.
Heard something similar about the Tagimas. The TW61, kinda of a Jazzmaster stood out for me
Took a chance on one up on eBay, arrived today, it's like brand new, new strings and decent set up for £115 👍
I have one of these I love it . I sorted the tuning I upgraded the Nut to a Tusk and put some Vanson Locking Tuners . Stay's in Tune great, I should add the original Tuners are decent
. I also bought a SX American Swamp ash Telecaster and it's awesome as it is although the Pickups are really hoty and it dosen't really sound like a Tele but it Rocks. The only thing that will stop buyer from buying this is it dosen't say Fender on the Headstock lol. Each to their own. Cheers!
Dave blows my mind every time I watch him.🤯
Amazing playing! I picked up one of those as well used at guitar center florida
The legend that is Bob 😊👍
Which is rob chapman
@@DEZZA12 no sure it's not Rob chapman
@Bob Blake you truly are a legend my friend thank you for being so kind and generous to Dave, he deserves it 😊👍best guitarist around my favourite and hope.one day I get to meet and jam with him
Body is usually ash on these. I have a SX Leo that I’ve significantly upgraded. Only bits still on it is the Single piece swamp ash body, the neck and the selector. My comment on the guitar as it comes is that the finish could be better (frets needed polishing and edging) the neck has a paint blemish in the lacquer, the tuners and tremolo block/bridge were absolute dogshit. In general these bits need to be replaced and a proper setup doing. But! The wood is decent. The pickups I had in mine weren’t actually that bad, I replaced them with some Klein Jazzy cats. Now this guitar really is something. I still want to change the neck though as it still isn’t amazing.
I agree that these instruments make great project guitars. I have an SX P bass that plays really well, and was nicely finished out of the box, but the pickups and electronics are practically begging to be replaced.
@@natxanadu I have good guitars also, but I enjoy building and upgrading guitars. Working on cheaper guitars gives you the confidence and knowledge to work on your expensive guitars before you touch them and potentially get things wrong.
that guitar sounds awesome
i bet you could make all my guitars here sound better.
Brilliant playing Dave.
Having alot them days lately. Can't even bring myself to play. Hang in there brother.
Dave get a basswood body change block wireing pickups cheap on Amazon from China put that neck on if ok and you'd be surprised .. rotosound strings pure nickle to take the treble .did this to my glarry at it now sounds like strat try it 🤗🤗😀
I swear!
Is there a better human on the planet?
Dave you are such an inspiration both for my guitar playing self and for my human being self!
( 2:05 - 2:20 )
🙂 thanks for sharing with us
Thank you. :)
Thanks Dave !
Hahaha, just picked one up today for AUD50 including a small amp. Probably sell the amp for 30 bucks and buy new slinky strings. Looks awesome.
hey man thanks for this video i couldn't find many people talking about these guitars. You have great energy and seem really genuine keep making awesome videos :D
holy shit! nice playing too!
Awesome job Dave! I have the SX Tele, same color and it is a great guitar. I was going to mod it but no need! I'm pretty sure you would make a Pencil sound amazingly! Thanks for your videos!
I know ya like your katana artist, but I just got black star silver line deluxe and if you have the chance, should check it out. I actually found an 80’s tone patch and I love it. I was so shocked how much I like it. I’m really into 80’s Hair Bands though and it shows lol.
Amazing guitar/Amazing player !!
Nice playing you’ve gone from Gilmour Hendrix Van Halen there 🤟
Bad idea; trying to play a stump.....Good idea; Dave , freestylin!!! There should be more people like Bob in the world! Peace To Everyone!
@Bob Blake Please forgive, i meant no disrespect. Just kinda thought that was already a given. Peace to you!
Beautiful guitar man
Faaaaarrrrrrrrr out, you freaking shredded, god damn man your insane
Great guitar
The neck is better than Harley Benton Stratocaster and Line back for fingers on Maple Neck
It's Great guitar for the price
I have Sx sst 57 2TS 😁
If the neck is too soft it might absorb string vibration instead of reflecting it. Loose screws might have a similar effect.
There's your custom made guitar. I wish u would feature it way more on your channel
First of all, very nice playing and tone. And guitar (the white one). As for staying in tune, honestly, a guitar is a machine and aside from major issues with wood (like seems to be on the black relic-ed one), solutions to things like tuning stability are mechanical - proper setup of the vibrato itself, a properly cut nut from a slick material like graphtech/tusq or even just some pencil graphite in the nut slots, locking tuners, maybe roller strings trees and it should be good. I have several SX instruments and they're great.
‘...good evening to you peploootoooobe’.
Great playing as always dave always thought sx were cheap rubbish without evan seeing one will definitely pay them a bit more attention now keep doing what u doing dave 👍
Tendrás muy buenos efectos amigo para sonar así con esa sx.... Ese sostén es de delay explotado...... Te felicito por la magia con esa sx
That sounds great.
