Wow the generic sound really does sound comparable. I recently traded a lower budget bc rich to a buddy for a few bucks and a brand new epiphone special 2. I know i am losing out in the deal but the epi is actually a little better feel that the bcrich assassin cheaper model. I will always miss that guitar but i did want an lp type gimuit also.. f i know im gonna keep my eye out for another bc rich in the future though. I always loved em.

I had one sort of like this one, not sure what model it was, It didn’t have the tremolo though. It’s in a couple of my videos I posted lately of my old band. I’d like to know what model it is? I gave 40 bucks for it in 93, Played great especially for 40 bucks 😂

sound samazing i have one too and it screams

I’ve ended up stacking a MXR Super Distortion pedal with a Marshall Guvnor pedal and it’s a killer sound. I get a very good John Sykes/ old school metal sound

Would u pick this guitar or a basic squier ?

I just bought a 2013 version of this guitar used for $150 and this video was helpful for me to start forming some opinions. I'm having it tuned up so haven't played it yet. I appreciate everyone's comments as well. It looks like a great guitar to learn on and upgrade over time. As a huge Angus Young fan growing up, I look forward to many years of shredding on this in tribute to my boyhood hero. "There was fifteen million fingers Learnin' how to play And you could hear the fingers pickin' And this is what they had to say Let there be light, sound, drums, guitar Oh, let there be rock!"

I look at this 25 years later and i realise why i loved this pedal. heck it may have shaped my way of playing the guitar by hitting the strings hard. Thanks for the awsome pice of gear. Thanks Andrew!

I have one, one of the problems is that the reverb tank gets a feedback loop going on its own because the tank isn’t properly isolated. Note the difference when you go through the separate speaker. 8 inch speakers aren’t known for their bass response anyway. But as a quiet practice amp it works fine. Even my jazzbox sounds okay through it at low volumes.

Bought one of these from a guy here in Finland for 50e. I had a bunch of spare electronics, pickups and tuners lying around from previous projects so I put in some tonerider pure vintage pups (60e), brass compensated saddles, full size pots, copper shielding and locking tuners. Sounds like a million bucks. The neck profile is the only ‘negative’ for me. That’s not to say it isn’t totally playable- I just like my necks a little slimmer. This one felt more like a 50s vintera profile. But it’s something I still enjoy playing, certainly won’t be re-carving it.

Hello ! So what do you think about it ? I bought the same second hand for 170 euros and it is surprisingly good for the price. It beats my SSH Fender Modern Player with distorsion. Clean sound is not as deep / rich as the Fender and the back of the neck could be more "varnished" but once again, we're talking about a 280 euros guitar ! I would recommend it for a beginner rather than some Squiers or other cheaper brands.

I still have mine I bought in the 90’s …. And used it with a Laney GH-100L. Now I have to figure out how to use it. With Line6 amp simulator and Roland GP-8 and GP-16

Which one would you recommend more?

I love this version of the Bandit so much! And i love the tones you're getting with it! Great demo!

i have the kustom 16 arrow 30watt model and its slightly different than this model and it sounds amazing.

1:10 100w 2:11 15w Good comparison!

I have a Swede and a Super Swede, both made in China, so I can confirm that the Super Swede does have the longer scale length.

I couldn't find this model anymore 😢

how do you get your hair looking like that???

dude your hair looks AWESOME!!!

My face just melted while listening to this video.

This Guitar, WOW! The best MIDI controller I’ve ever used! It puts my Roland GR-55 and Godin Guitar ( with Factory Roland Midi System ) rig to shame! When recording, I use it to play my quality Virtual Instrument plugins. Also, great for triggering MIDI sound modules. It tracks great with little to no false notes being triggered. Note: I have been playing MIDI guitars for 31 years. None of them can touch this for recording! Hooch

14' of talking...

I owned one of these, but sold it. I repent everyday.

Any path

Switch the boost on its give more gain..

I'm sorry, great guitar's, not so great playing. Hope you get better. I suck too. Lol

I hate when I listen to somebody for half an hour (felt like that) soeakung about specs and feel, and then discover that he's obviously a beginner. No offense here, I've been a beginner too but I didn't make videos...

These are better guitars than the gibsons they competed with on release, and yes im referring to the sbg200, they are that good. Im glad theyre still easy on the wallet when one goes up for sale.

And yes,they are prone to breakage! Trust me!

I also have one of these. Mine is an HSH in Electric Blue. Killer machine! Pickups are hot enough as is. These were made from 1989-1993. Short run. This was Fenders answer to all the "fast Strats" that were popular at that time. There were five interactions of this guitar,versions I-V. Mine is a version IV. Made in Korea with various body woods from Plywood to Mahogany. Less expensive Floyd Rose system as opposed to the higher end Strats.

Its called a german carve. Why did u buy the guitar if u hate everything about it?

I had the P90 version. It was an okay guitar, but the neck was pretty rough. Sharp fret ends, lots of high spots. For a moment I thought about correcting it myself, but then I eventually decided to send the guitar back after a few days.

👍🏻👍🏻

The front pickup, slanted with bass side rearward and treble side forward, makes far more sense that the "Fender slant". Treble side forward puts the pickup where the signal is stronger (larger string movement, closer to the mid-point) and where the tone is "rounder", therefore not so shrill. Likewise, the bass side is not so high-output and gets more tonal "edge". Cool guitar - amazing feature set - excellent choice!

Nice !🎉

I just bought this one second hand. Do you have any recommendations for amps that go well with this guitar? (If there is such a thing) I intend to just play by myself and ideally not too large of an amplifier. God fortsättning!

I got one as my first real guitar in 1990. Played it till the bridge pissed off and I screwed it down to the body. I have kept it for sentimental reasons in my guitar graveyard. Just recently decided to rebuild it, put proper locking saddles instead of the cheap string through. Refret with jumbos and put a SH-8 invader, and it plays like a motherfucker. As you pointed out very Ibanez inspired. I think the string through Floyd let the ball ends flop around if you dive bombed, and it would go out of tune Al the time. Simple fix as a seasoned guitar builder now 😁

welcome back!

Great to see you again🎉

Very good to see you back in action, my friend!

Use a foot switch yes it has place for foot switch I got this amp and when you use foot switch 2 channels

First generation only made in 1980 looks just like but has square magnet and gun smoke letter style, written bandit, 50 watts.. The third generation 65 scorpion 12 speaker, 1983-86

That's the 2 generation has 50 watts and a scorpion 12 speaker, 1981-83

i just got a super swede. where can i find out info on the serial number?

Do the ltd floyd Roses stay in tune well? Or should i replace it?

I dunno man, I bought one almost a decade ago for a project and ended up keeping it because it plays so damn good! The vol knob needs tightening a bit now, and I did push the bridge posts in tighter with a dab of glue. It has been absolutely solid and sounds great through my big vintage amps. Hasn't even broke a nut yet either.

habla mucho y tocas como la Tula chanta clio
