This is the second review I have seen on a firefly guitar which happened to be a Telecaster and like you the reviewer was upfront about it, these are decent guitars for the money, many thanks.

Awesome video ... Great job comparing these two guitars and brands... I'm not surprised one bit by the results but it was great to hear such a comprehensive and unbiased comparison. I've got two Firefly guitars that are as good as Epiphones and actually to my ear better sounding, and saving myself about a G note Is a fantastic and beautiful thing.... I'm hooked ... Firefly Guitars Rock! I'm on my way to growing myself a beautiful collection for sure.

Those inlays are definitely not abalone. Abalone has a lot of color in it. Lots of greens and blues. Those inlays look like pearloid to me. I don't mean to nitpick, but the truss-rod cover isn't embroidered (sewn-in with thread). I think you mean engraved. Also, you can't copyright a design. Trademark infringement is what Gibson lawyers would be interested in. Sorry. Other than that, it looks like a very nice guitar.

I like firefly guitars because I can modify and mess up without feeling bad about it. I own 2 and have modified the he'll out of them. I would put my modified fireflys against any $3K guitar any day.

They are good guiars for the money. I had a Lp Firefly guitar. Bought used. Built really good. Binding etc. Only thing id charge in the future would be the electronics, upgrade. I sold it about a year ago. Wish i would of keep it uggh. Take care 😎✌️🎸💯

They really are! Even if some aren't totally perfect they can still be set up to be really great! The new Lps they've been putting out are actually really good compared to the older ones! Even got locking tuners on them! They've been improving with everything on their guitars, even the pickups! But thank you man!

Grabbed an fflv off their ebay site. 11 out of 22 frets needed to be addressed. I believe the ebay site is for their returns. I found the older model to have shrill, weak puckups so I replaced them with wilkinson vintage tone pickups. Still for 189 USD you can't beat it. So how was the overall feel of the guitar? My fflv has a fatter than I prefer neck and felt a bit light for its size. When Strumming unplugged it has a hollow sound. Would you say that is similar or not to the new models ? Thanks and as always, great video.
@AnthonyRJavino Ай бұрын
Oh damn, yeah that's not expectable at all! This one i got sent only had like 2 frets but that many is just no good. And you're probably right, i'd still to guitars garden or amazon if you buy from them again. Yeah i bought a FFLX before i got this one where the pickups were weak as hell too. But oh yeah for the price it's still great! But the feel is pretty much the same as an older FFLX, neck pretty much feels the same as well. Just the pickups are way hotter! Which is GOOD haha! But thank you bro! Im glad you enjoyed it man!

My dad is probably Firefly's biggest customer. He's been buying them for at least 5 years. The first 8-10 he bought were kinda janky. And I had nothing but scorn for them because I thought dad was wasting his money. Over time, he's given those all away. But these past couple of years Firefly has been exponentially better. The Mad Cat Telecaster is such a simple and nice guitar. The semi hollowbody teles with the thumbnail inlays are gorgeous. The 335s are finally not just some big microphone in my lap. Their QC is substantially better and you STILL can't get a $10,000 American made Gibson Custom Shop with stainless steel frets....
@AnthonyRJavino Ай бұрын
I'm right up there with your dad! I've got like 16-17 of them now haha! Yeah, alot of the earlier ones had crappy bridges and microphonic pickups but they've improved with that stuff over the years for sure! But that's sweet of your old man to give them away! I still have to get the Mad Cat and one of the semi hollow bodys! They look nice! And i can imagine haha! Already get hum with the baffles, pair that with a microphonic pickup forget it! hahaha! But oh absolutely! You'd think a company of that scale and proportion would have their guitars pristine and perfect. Pfft haha!
@mykuntstynx9463 Ай бұрын
@@AnthonyRJavino Keep in mind that the bridge on the semi hollow Teles is floating. Imagine my surprise when I went to change strings and the entire bridge slid off the guitar. Had I known this I would have taped it down because I'm sure it's not in the right place now. And as a matter of fact, he just ordered the black walnut Firefly LP custom. And I'm trying to talk him into buying the maple fretboard / natural finish LP with the black inlays. Cheers...

That's usually what the older Fireflys had an issue with. Surprising to hear they still have guitars with microphonic pickups this recent? Thought they got around that problem, But thats good that your guitar was rock solid besides the pickups! And thank you so much man! I appreciate it!
