Psyched that Dollar Shave Club sponsored this video! They’ve almost made buying this guitar worth it. Don’t buy a Wish guitar, save yourself the frustration and try high-quality razor blades delivered right to your door instead: www.dollarshaveclub.com/agufish EDIT: Fourth export, and warp stabilizer still doesn’t want to cooperate. I give up lol
I have guitars that are worth a thousand an guitars that are worth $63 when recording in the studio hard to tell the difference. I do like the Fishman fluence pickups I have but when I recorded another song with different pickups hard to tell which ones which.
I get so annoyed by how many cheap, terrible guitars (usually Strat style) that have great finishes. If I was better with tools I'd just transplant a load of Squier parts onto them and make them into a decent instrument.
Watching you play a $39 guitar and sounding waaaaaay better than I do on my PRS has finally pushed me over the edge to go ahead and seek actual instruction instead of just trying to teach myself. So... thanks?
@@kevliao O, I absolutely believe it, but the fact that I have really nice guitars that I can't play to their level of quality is making me cry inside. Lol
Pawn shops would probably get you a better deal than wish. When my friend wanted to learn guitar I went shopping with him and found a 79$ squier strat with great electronics (as good as a squier affinity can get), zero dead frets, and it also came with a hard case. The only problem was some monster stuck tape on the fretboard but it was nothing lemon oil couldn't fix, we also changed the strings which were the originals off of it.
The song is killer as always, and I love what Patrick brought with the bass. I love the way it looks but gosh darn does it sound bad even from the demo, especially in the "verse" riff with the lead notes. Great stuff tho, I'm definitely gonna check out Patrick's vid on his bass.
Damn it Hunter....now you gotta upgrade it...damnit. "can you make a $39 guitar gigable? But instead of going all out like on the pink strat maybe do a cheapest upgrade video??
timjenkins502 YES! Awesome idea... partly because I bought this exact guitar last week solely as a mod project lol! It would be cool to see what he would do to it!
@@mattjones8523 I did a total GFS/XGP mod project (featured on their page), and it's pretty much the first one I pick up when I just feel like tearing shit up. It's a freaking beast.
@@ianmiller4195 Body and neck stays....new tuners and nut along with fretwork and new electronics....you toss the bridge in the garbage bin ,get some maple wedge and glue it in the bridge hole and get a simple hardtail bridge to mount(that is very inexpensive)....in the end you dont have to spend even half of what is suggested and you ll have an excellent guitar.
Dang I ordered a Glarry bass for $68, delivered and thought I did great ! It is good to go though ! Anyways congrats on the new sponsor and your honesty ! Rock on Hunter !
I have an Ibanez GIO GRGR120EX and it was my first electric guitar. I got it from Guitar Center and the setup on it was good, and it played well right away. It has a 6-Screw style bridge with a screw-in trem arm. It has two humbuckers, with a 3 way selector switch and one volume knob along with one tone knob. Overall it’s pretty good and mine came with three springs on the trem but if you plan to keep the bridge against the body and use a string gauge higher than 9’s, definitely add another spring or two. But for only $200, it’s an extremely good beginner guitar, and I still use it to this day.
@@greattoseayou248 that ;) cheap guitar is a second hand guitar from those shops you can get some second hand goods.. I don't know what those stores are called, but it's a store where he got his clothes from too perhaps.
The sad thing is that back when Kurt was alive and before breaking into mainstream, those particular guitar models he usually buy probably were $150-$250 in thrift stores and pawn shops. Possibly cheaper. Now that his band and himself are legendary today, the prices and demand of them have gone way up - new or used. You gotta credit him for making the Fender Mustang and Jaguar popular again.
Take the pick guard off and see what it looks like under there. If it has a swimming pool route see how many different pickups you can fit in the guitar at once.
@@agufishWell originally I was thinking something like that lefty Les Paul from the Guitar Player article about the worst guitar mods. The one with the P90, single coil, mini humbucker, and humbucker. 9 single coils is a whole new level though. DM me if you really wanna try it. I have two electrical engineers in my immediate family who can help design the circuit. Imagine an 81 position rotary dial for all possible combinations of the pickups lmao.
7:02 best way to check for this in a hurry/from pictures on a cheap or used guitar is to see how centered the dot markers are between the D and G strings on the higher frets.
I have that exact guitar, got it on ebay, but I'm sure it's the same manufacturer, except mine was shipped from the US (had free shipping on ebay). I really like it for what it is, just something to pick and strum for a little bit every now and then. I have to say mine seems to have come in better shape than yours, both cosmetically and in terms of playability. But that's the thing with these low cost manufacturers, you never know what you're going to get and there's no one being accountable for consistent quality. I haven't opened it to check, but I've thought of getting humbuckers for it as a project.
I’ve gotta be honest, I love how the whole bottom half of the guitar looks, if only it were to look a little more authentic it would be a beautiful guitar.
Actually I just realized a fantastic use for this guitar: non-close-up set props for filmmaking. Would work great for a short scene in which the player smashes his guitar at the end or something. Or even if you were low budget and needed to outfit a few actors playing band members with instruments for a scene in which there's a band performing in the background. Get some of those funny spaghetti logo headstock decals off Etsy that say "Fucker" instead of Fender, and you're good to go; low-cost, potentially high production value depending on how you shoot it, and realistically little to worry about in regards to licensing issues since you're not actually using a Fender branded instrument. I just wish (fucking goddamn puns I didn't even mean to do that) that Wish would advertise these as working props so that unsuspecting beginners didn't get screwed!
Thanks for reviewing this. I was thinking of buying one as a mod platform. Now I know to stick with used $50-100 Squires on craigslist, and I'll probably buy a Harley Benton or Agile soon since they come highly recommended. That guitar from Wish would make me want to swap out the neck, pickguard and body too, hahaha!
Looks can be deceiving! When I first looked at the variations of the gorgeous blue colors i thought wow this the best colored guitar I’ve ever seen! Then reality set in when you explained more about the guitar:) Thanks! I just found out about Wish.com! Just trying to do a search on acoustic guitars! I’ve heard about Eastman Guitars and maybe they have some deals!
Thank you Dollar Shave Club! I'm already a member so I can't sign up through Agufish, but I can help advertise it through the power of personal recommendation. Look, this is just one of those things where you can solve a life problem and be done with it probably forever. Getting razors in the mail sounds like a trivial thing, but once you get used to it you realize that the inconvenience of buying razors in a store is just stupid. There's no reason for you to have to spend even one minute on it ever again, so don't.
The body is rather attractive and the neck is salvageable. Sand it, get it oiled and do an extensive fretjob (maybe a refret considering the soft frets) and the rest can be removed and upgraded. But this is only an option if you took it on as a project or to build up luthiery skills.
Can I just say that your Harley Benton t shape green guitar is one of the nicest looking guitars I’ve seen and I would love to see a review done on them
I smell another high intergrity project! Lol. Though, what are your thoughts on the new Rammstein album? What's your favorite song? Mine is Hallomann but I love the whole album! Do you think you can try to get a hold of one Richard Kruspe's ESP signature models for a demo? Maybe the RZK Burnt 2 since you love LP shapes.
I got same guitar bought used 3 years ago (and it was used 5 years before I bought it) it was my first electric and I still enjoy it. If you got no money and live in poor country like me this "no brand strat" is awesome. Trust me... I still play it mostly everyday. (I'm lefty so I play it in Hendrix style that's also reason I must buy it... it's impossible to find cheap lefty guitar)
Tune it to open G (From low to high, DGDGBD). Get a slide. Play slide on it. It'll sound like somebody playing slide on a guitar even if it's a more expensive guitar. Slide will work on anything that looks like a guitar, warped neck and all.
I bought that exact same one but I’ve put a dragonfire pickguard and roller string trees and locking tuners on mine and all in its $100. It doesn’t even play or sound bad at all now!
Great point, the only people that would buy this junk are people unprepared and unable to deal with it, and would make any new player quit within the first minutes of trying. If only it came with a warning/disclaimer sticker that said "Sorry, this is not really a guitar, just a replica. Not meant to be played!" 🎶🎸
I just realized that your bass player friend is the guy who has had me searching for the now out-of-production Squier Troy Sanders Jaguar bass for the last 6 months. Used, they seem to sell the same day they list....
I got the same guitar on eBay for $38 (had a coupon) with free shipping. For $38 it's fine enough for me just to dick around with until i either learn to play or give up on it. I got the bass as well. Bass and guitar and a pocket amp for under $100. Not too bad if you ask me.
Hunter - Review The Firefly 335-style Guitar. You get them off of Amazon - don’t buy from EBay or Craigslist - those are “flippers”. Got mine 6 months ago - they hit Amazon & within days they’re gone. GREAT GUITAR for $139.
For the price (it costs like a couple of Elixir strings!) it's a miracle that produces sounds! 😆 Btw you can use it to have something to put on the wall of your bedroom just for furniture!
Well, but you made music with it. My hat's off to you for that! But I agree with you, look for a 2nd hand Squier on Craigslist. In my town, I've bought them for as low as $50 USD. And then, you've got something you can at least with with. Good video.
I think it's mainly just something beginners should buy to see if they should play guitar or not without having to spend 300$ only to find out they hate guitar
haha yeah, I getchu. but I think if you started with this there's a good chance you might think you hate guitar, but it's really just this instrument lol
@@agufish I return 7 months later, and after obtaining a new good guitar in June, I can officially confirm that the 39$ guitar truly did indeed suck I wanted to justify the guitar since it used to be my only guitar back then
Hey Agufish I have a challenge I'd really like to see you do a video on. You have to buy a guitar and play literally anything other than generic post-metal on it, thanks.
I have heard some that sounded pretty good. Even if it is unplayable, it can be used as wall art for decorating. No kidding, you cant buy a nice picture of a guitar for that price.
Could be a cool like aluminum neck guitar project and swap in a better quality bridge, I mean you already own it so that doesn't cost you to mod it as far as the body is concerned being as you already have the body, nice videos hunter sir well that's probably stuff like I'd use it for anyways..
stick a decent neck on it, rip out the internals and put some fat hotrails or humbuckers in it, a black (or even transparent) pickguard and voila, a beast.
Was it just my bad ear or did each pick up sound pretty much the same no matter which ones you had selected? No, the neck pick up sounded even more harsh than the others. Thank you for your review on this ax.
I got one like this same color. Swap in a Hotrail pick ups and a few tweak and mods. Now it sounds great but mine does not go out of tune even with the default tuner peg.

Cheap guitar, or expensive piece of firewood ?🤔
yes.
Slide guitarists don't care. They play with thrown together cigar box guitars, warped necks and rusty strings.
Guys, I tried, I really really tried to make this sound good lol. Sometimes a guitar is THAT bad.
Side note, Patrick’s bass still sounded awesome!
It's fine
Sounded good for what you were working with.
Hey if you want to smash a guitar onstage, but guitars are like, suuuper expensive, here you go! It's good for something! BEING EXECUTED PUBLICLY!
My thoughts exactly... gonna buy some of these just to play for one final song then destroy them. Should make some good cheap publicity
The song is killer as always, and I love what Patrick brought with the bass.

Could be a cool like aluminum neck guitar project and swap in a better quality bridge, I mean you already own it so that doesn't cost you to mod it as far as the body is concerned being as you already have the body, nice videos hunter sir well that's probably stuff like I'd use it for anyways..
video starts at 6:28 thank you
If you put a warmoth neck and a lot of elbow grease into it i think it would make a pretty cool upgrade project
stick a decent neck on it, rip out the internals and put some fat hotrails or humbuckers in it, a black (or even transparent) pickguard and voila, a beast.
New High Intergrity project possibly?
Pawn shop finds are always pretty cool. You can probably find one around 50 bucks that’s pretty decent, at least a good base for upgrades
If its good enough for grunge and punk rock. Its good enough for me! Let me get a hand full of stickers to slap on it and im set! LMAOO!
I'm pretty sure that was my first guitar!
Was it just my bad ear or did each pick up sound pretty much the same no matter which ones you had selected? No, the neck pick up sounded even more harsh than the others. Thank you for your review on this ax.
I got one like this same color. Swap in a Hotrail pick ups and a few tweak and mods. Now it sounds great but mine does not go out of tune even with the default tuner peg.
Hey Hunter, why do u use drop d a lot? I personally love drop d myself and I wanted to get another's opinion on it
Drop D good... Standard D more gooder. Take that shit low, homie.
