Just installed $35 pickups in my first guitar from 25 years ago. They sound amazing. Im blown away

How Munch this guitar....?

Sire L7 are really bad. 1st I received : goldtop had kind of brush stroke ... sent it back 2nd one : lot of feedback/larsen : sent it back. I finally bought a used Gibson Les Paul Tribute

I remember my days as a product reviewer (computer components in the early 2000s). Publicists for the big manufacturers wouldn't explicitly say "You can keep this when you're done reviewing it." They'd just 'forget' to ask for it back. Most often, the component sent for review would some average update that you already had 10 of hanging around. But every so often, they'd send out a gem, a product of such value that you hope you never, ever, ever get that RMI sticker in the mail for the return. I mean, an Emerald Virtuo. . . even if they only gave me a 30 percent discount, I'd still call it my lucky day.

I"m sure it sounds like a transistor radio without the back up power....just as good..... Nah

That’s just a Shmeckle knockoff

Hey Darrell, hope you're good.

It says page not found in your link 😢

Hello Darrell Braun. I hope you're still out there, playing music for the Lord. When can we expect another review?

As a first electric , bought a Tokai Les Paul style guitar after trying it side by side with a fender. I've been learning acoustic for a year now, but see more progress with the electric in less than a month. I'll probably get a Stratocaster too eventually, since i now see more clearly the differences.

I have a couple schecters and this is one of them. Great guitar, just has an amazing feel. I love the HT. The guitar is beautiful!

Hi Darryl, just curious what the duty to import to Canada is?

My one stays in tune for a week

Still Wangs is a bad name. Initials would have been better. Just a W at least be better or a first name.

It's like a locking tuner but everyone can see it up front.

Your guitar, amp, and other gear can color your tone. But, the foundation of your tone comes from your fingers.

Where you ever able to find pickup covers to fit those pickups? I don’t remember ever seeing covers in different pole spacings.

Excellent video. I am looking for my first guitar and overwhelmed by the selection. Thanks for highlighting the truly important points when making a selection.

Great post

What bout the tuning issues?

I loved my Ultra III. 🎸 My friend with all the expensive Strats seemed envious of it. It had a great sound. It would go outta tune from the first strum. I wish i kept it.

Ok but the p rails sounded sick like not as much jangle as the jazzmast but much brighter than the traditional p90s

The most beautifull amp. I love it so much. It just miss a line in to listen a backing track or play on a musique. But all the rest are really very good and one of the best of the market. And so beautifull in the night buff. Nice video. 😉👍

Maybe should have been worded better, I thought these would be 3 Gibson Les Pauls in the range compared. Good video though!

Reta Crossroad

Complete noobie here. Just ordered one at a pretty good price. Definitely will be taking advantage of the learning tools. This is a unit that I can take camping easily. I think the slimmer design will be a big difference maker in my journey. Appreciate the review!

What is the fingerboard radius? Why didn't you mention the neck shape and thickness?

And they have models that cost $3,400.00

If Gibson players learned the Luthiers knot at the tuning peg their tuning problems would disappear. It works on any tuner. These tuners seem like an unnecessary purchase to a problem that has already been solved.

What about a self-lubricating graphite type nut before installing the Nut Buster to see if that on it's own would alleviate tuning issues?

Just fantastic, I am a firefly fan. Like you said why buy 1 guitar when you can get 2 or 3 for less than a full price Gibson. I wouldn't say anything if they weren't of great quality in which they are. Got my I will definitely buy a lot more.

holding reverb button down and turning the knob past 12 oclock puts it post amp and turned before 12 puts reverb in front of amp. Holding boost button down , you have a noise gate , again using the knob

dang that kiesel is sexy as hell..... also id imagine making a tremolo system out of it shouldn't be too hard because since you can bend the saddles and have it return to tune perfectly you can just make an external hinge with a bar connected to them to well..... do the WHEEEEEEEE and BAAAAOOOOWWWW

This was amazing! I am 4 years too late but still 😂

I'm waiting for this beauty to arrive any day now! I couldn't be more excited! 😵

Pot size, are you serious?! 😂

Question not comment. Have you ever checked out Fesley, specifically the FST 350. Can't make a decision on that or the Donner DST 152. You're opinion would be appreciated unless contractual or brand competition prohibits this.

Has DB called it quits? Hope he's ok.

Has DB quit youtube?

Thank you for teaching me how to be a player you Romantic big boy!!!!

I have a Squier Mustang and I was able to replace the Squier Antique tuners with Gotoh locking antique tuners with zero modifications and they are fantastic tuners.

I was given a Firefly 335 last year, and I've been comparing mine with the one reviewed here. Fortunately for me, I guess maybe Firefly heard the reviews and responded well. There are no issues of sloppy or unfinished fretwork or binding, or of microphonic pickups. On all three counts I'd give this one a 9 out of 10 for craftsmanship. Amazing axe for that kind of money, although it being 2024 now, maybe they're not quite that cheap nowadays?

It's worth mentioning that this mod also affects the 2 & 4 positions as well. I was gifted a Strat with this mod, and it was a pleasant surprise.

Hey! 👋

Hi mate, great video! Thanks so much. One question: using 5 RAW vintage springs Is it recomended using Deck bridge set up or floating? And why?

I vote USA

The correct answer is I’ll take one of each please😊
