    This so awesome, man. Incredible kindness from Jim and Rich but there's no one more deserving of it.

    • @zachtheguitarmaniac
      @zachtheguitarmaniac 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s the secret weapon! Tyler straight into an Avalon preamp, straight into the board for clean with the mid boost turned on but at minimum.... crystalline unique cleans nothing else can do.

    I have a BW2K and it blows my mind every time I pick it up to play. My Tyler also has the same exact pups as yours, two 5500s in the neck and middle and a super in the bridge. Mine is made of mamywo though and it's got some aggressive mids! I love it!!!! I can dial the action down so damn low and it doesn't even buzz! F-ing amazing in every way! Oh, and I love the headstock!!!

    Great video Shawn and love the guitar. I have a P90 Variax lp style gold top designed by James that I never use as a variax but love the 59 neck feel and the p90 sound. The active at basically no volume boost kinda reminds me of a transparent always on kinda thing, like using a super light compressor or a tc spark or something. Keep making these great videos! I picked up a D20 after much consideration and watching all your vids! Absolutely loving it!

    So happy you were offered that guitar! What a great story. Lovely instrument of superior quality that sounds great through your setup.
    You’re essentially paying for a bespoke Strat with this kind of guitar (or a Fender Masterbuilt, Tom Anderson, Hahn, LSL, Suhr custom, etc...). There’s a pride in ownership, like a Saville Row tailored suit, even though there’s arguably not a $2500 difference the way it sounds or plays between this kind of boutique guitar and an off the rack MIM Strat or Schecter (reflecting how good the factories have gotten overseas rather then a decline in American made guitars). That great rolled fretwork would be unlikely with a stock medium priced guitar, although you can find some.

  • @NikolausBrocke
    @NikolausBrocke 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    First, your playing is so tasteful and so fluid, it's allways a pleasure to listen to your demos. Probably that's what the people at Tyler did too. They listened and they send you this instrument made famous by the great Dan Huff and Mike Landau. Tyler is right! Every great pro musician must play a Tyler Guitar. And that's especially true for you. No matter if one can afford it or not. Congratulation.

    Hi Shawn. From Japan. I made a comment perhaps nearly 2years ago and got your kind response.
    Excited to see James Tyler..! I am 56. I first recognized Michael when “Maxus” released their first (and last…) debut album in the early 80’s. I was a high school kid playing “ARIA“ guitar. Then, saw James Tyler when he released his first solo “Tales from the bulge”. He had the famous “vomit” paint? guitar.
    I saw him at the Boz Scaggs concert with Carlos Vega on the drum and Neil S.(on bass). It was sort of a “festival” type of concert, so, Joe Walsh Band and Michael McDonald Band were there with young Robben Ford on Guitar..!!! I recall he played a Strat..!
    He shredded a lot. Haha..
    I own a guitar from Peter Skermetta. I believe he was one of the luthiers at James Tyler. I found his prototype on Ebay probably almost a decade ago and did my own research a bit and took a chance.
    The serial number is 10101… . Sent email to Peter and he confirmed that it is his creation. Looks like he inherited a DNA from James Tyler and the rolled-up fretwork is excellent..!!! I am spoiled… It is so comfortable and I first thought I got a shorter scale neck, but it is full Fender size.
    By the way, James Tyler has its own MIJ product line, too. Maybe, Tom Anderson, next..?

    Your choice of saddles is perfect. What players do not know is they are the only saddles that do not slide when you bend or do vibrato. The downward pressure from the string in effect makes them spread out and in effect lock. Because they have such little mass your sustain and tone comes from the wood not the saddle.Of course the irony is even the best ones are a fraction of the cost of the so called best. These 'best' are the best on a plywood body because all the tone and sustain is nothing but the bridge. NOTE: Leo was well aware of all this and was pissed when the marketers at Fender changed them. Trev Wilkinson did his own tests. He too found the same thing.

    Nice gesture from Tyler ! You deserve it ;-) Quite a breathtaking instrument tonewise and the matched headstock looks much less quirky than the natural one :) 59 profile and rolled fret edges: Home run !! The boost circuit is handy, but I rather use the one I have on my always on pedal (Super-Signa Drive by CmatMods...)

      Thanks! Yes, the rolled fretboard edges are a great touch and it's that attention to detail that means a lot to me.

    that boost button is like my Godin Progression. They've had an HDR switch for years.

    Shawn! I love your playing and this guitar REALLY suits you. Do you offer any guitar course somewhere?

    Hi Shawn. I appreciate this review. I am looking to purchase some JTS-5500 pickups to put in one of my HSS Strats because I'm a huge Landau fan. You mentioned these pickups have some compression to them? Will these get me anywhere in the ballpark of Landau's Burning Water days when I believe he was playing Tyler guitars?

    Great vid and congrats on the guitar. Seeing and hearing a Tyler is great, but I think you have to play one to really "get it". ...or at least it was that way for me. Cheers
