    Probably the most detailed reviews on TH-cam, always worth a look.

    These are the best reviews on youtube. Some of the points aren't things I really care about but I'm sure for some they change whether or not they'll buy it or not. Thank you for these. Also! Please never stop doing the neck measurements and comparisons! That's such a big selling point for me and it's something that's so hard to know without having it in your hand. You bridging that gap has been super helpful!

    Hello, I'm from Dominican Republic, I'm a musician/guitarrist/producer. I found your Channel in my recommended section, and it was worth it. My favorite pedal is the hotone ampero stage 2

    Best reviewer ever, exactly what I was looking for.
    Best part was showing tone change as voice changes, with string still rings. (So that I could see volume difference. Most reviews don’t show that)
    I am looking foward you to review one of new cort guitar, x700 mutility if you have a chance. You could compare with this one.
    Thanks!

    If the battery was mounted further back it would helped against neckdive… simple things have often a big impact, if overlooked…

    • @fredmad4988

      Neck dive shows that its a light guitar, have you tried shifting the strap to the truss rod bolt on screws .

      I moved the back strap button up about 3,5 - 4 inches. Helps a tiny bit against neckdive, but generally hangs better and more comfortable on the strap. Did it on all 6 of my guitars.

    I have one, and it's a great beast for that price, in Europe the price may vary quite a bit, I had 1 issue with the guitar, and that is that it drains my battery all the time, I don't leave it pluged in, quick fix is that I always pull the battery out :) great guitar if I may say 🤙

    I actually own this guitar.. I waited 6 months for delivery here in the US. Honestly, I haven’t played it much because during the wait, I bought a fender Stratocaster Ultra SSS in Aged Natural (Solid Swamp Ash) and have primarily been playing it.. Time to pull this one out again (before the 9 volt dies lol).

    Max please tell me your honest opinion about the neck profile! Is it thin like Ibanez? Is it shreddable?

    • @MaxSoloMusic
      @MaxSoloMusic  ปีที่แล้ว

      It is in a way similar to Ibanez Wizard profile but much thicker. It's a D versus thin U on Ibanez. I'd say it's absolutely shreddable. But so is any other neck: at least for me the shape and thickness don't matter at all.

    How do you rate this guitar by comparison with Harley Benton Amarok 6 which you also checked and tested?

    • @MaxSoloMusic
      @MaxSoloMusic  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey. They do similar things in a somewhat different manner. KX500 will generally be more versatile while Amaroks used to have slightly more cosmetic imperfections. But that was like a few years back. I didn't have a chance to look at newer HB batches, they're constantly improving

    ALL guitars from indonesia will develop fret sprout. It's because it's coming from the most humid possible conditions in the world....any where it arrives will have less humidity, the wood WILL shrink and fret sprout WILL happen.
    I propose we ask the world to stop making guitars in Indonesia or any other high humidity environment.
