Great! That brings back good memories ❤ Even better than this lil gadget ist your heartwarming presentation of it. 😻

Looks like a great pedalboard. I need to watch the American joyo pedal vlog as I bought one many moons ago and have yet to use it very much. Out of these 3, so far, I’m more inclined towards the California style pedal but will look forward to you demoing all. Good idea to do a giveaway. It’s a win for your channel, Joyo, and some lucky winner.

Love how you covered the sleek design features… The shake test was impressive too. Joyo always seems to impress as far as functionality. The smart design seems accommodating as far as various size pedals from mini to oversized and the design looks like it would hold odd shapes as well (round, non square, non rectangular, etc). Really appreciated the detail. Joyo pedals have that flexibility that when you dial them in they are wonderful will the clips hold lower/higher profile pedals too?

Yes iam in thats a decent set up. good luck everyone and thanks for the chance ta win!

Time to step up your pedal game with a no-velcro pedalboard! Worth a shot for sure! Rock on!🤘🤘

That's a nice pedalboard!

As always Keith, another entertaining and informative video! Well done and many thanks to Joyo!

Nice paddle board I would love to have it.👍

That’s a clean and solid looking pedal board! Can’t wait to see you dial in some sounds on those pedals !!

Been looking at getting a pedal board for my son ... this one would be sweet and he would love it .

Nice! I could always use more pedalboard space, and that mounting system looks handy.

My first four track. Well, it was actually a three track coz it was second hand and one track didn't work. Did my GCSE composition file on it. Good times!

I had the opportunity to buy a Squier Bullet Tele in AU a similar price point runout deal when Fender was running them out in late 2022 to be superseded in that market demographic segment by the Sonic series. After playing/owning it for 18 months, my conclusion is that in it Squier finally had a product which could actually rival Yamaha's base entry level 012 Pacifica on equal terms in terms of price, playability, build quality and overall finish as an entry level guitar, the two different configurations notwithstanding. If one can pick one up for the kind of SALE price point you did, just do it. They are a steal. They are even solid buying at the regular street price (RSP vs SRP). Worth pointing out. There is a difference between Squier Teles for the US market vs many places in ROW. US market gets Bullet Teles which are Made in Indonesia like yours. In AU for instance, the distro imports Chinese made units limited to just two colour schemes. The BQ and finish of the Chinese units are superb, and the pickups albeit still ceramic, of different origin and superior in terms of kOhm output. The Chinese models are top loaders as I noticed the one you have is. Previous Indonesian parallel year models (e.g. 2022) used to be string through, so not sure if they're changed that since or? String through is of aesthetic traditional curmudgeon appeal only in this guitar IMV. Makes no tonal difference, & in fact top load is preferred from a string change perspective. After a setup, playable as is with nothing but a string change. IME they'll need to be replaced within six weeks when the high E or B breaks, so may as well do it during initial full setup after that initial tune & play we all do straight out of the box. My neck was perfectly finished (smooth on the reverse) & a good looking piece of maple too. Surprisingly, fret ends were finished all the way up the nick & absent any fret sprout. Frets were level too, but they definitely needed a polish as they had that factory protectant grunge all over them. The fingerboard was dry. On my example, the tuners work in that they do do the job and hold tune, but are basic in mech op & feel. No need for immediate replacement but it is a consideration for later down the track as this guitar is otherwise a player & worth it. The pickups. 6kOhm on the Chinese version. They are ceramics, and tone is OK in class. Fine for a beginner to learn with. This is the area where one can turn this into a very good guitar with installation an inexpensive Korean Wilkinson alnico pickup set, pots & capacitor. Most important part. It plays well in the hand. Even the tall traditional frets it is fitted with vs medium jumbos are pleasant. It has a nice C neck profile, pleasing 9½" radius just comfortable overall feel. Mine came in on the heavy... ish side at 3.5kg (just under 7¾lb in your money) considering it's allegedly a Poplar body, and the Bullet 'thinner than regular Tele slab' at that. Made me suspect mine is actually a hybrid assembly. i.e. a previous year surplus to production top load Affinity Alder body after production was transferred to Indonesia. The weight seems about right for that. Who would know without stripping the paint off? Either way, I'm not complaining nor disappointed. Mine was the Black with white pickguard, the other choice being a two tone Sunburst. NLA in AU unfortunately superseded by the Sonic series at a similar SRP, which if as good get my tick of approval. Well done Fender/Squier.

Got a buddy willing to let got of his Univox super cheap, getting excited hearing some of the demos online. This thing seems to be an absolute garage rock machine.

Yeh, that varitone ain't doin' it. Look up a real varitone circuit, get a printed circuit inductor. I found one about 6.3 mH. Mine is on a fake tele with a dual rail bridge and fidelitron neck (rotary knife switch). Each pup has a tone pot/switch to select v-tone or pot. MAGIC!

Great job on the fingerboard! 10 coats ... its awesome!

WASTE OF TIME AND $$

Dude you rock so hard.

I've watched a lot of reviews of this guitar as i'm wanting to get one and this is probably the best one so far. I really appreciate the disclosure of what Enya said as its impossible to find a review that isn't sponsored so you never really know. This is the only review that shows the usb input into PC. I didn't know that was a feature and is relevant to me, so that's great. Thanks

Love the viper , how is the tone , is it as good as a standard tele , and how do they play I’m thinking about getting the viper 2 , it’s kind of pricey which I don’t mind , I like that they took innovative opportunities over cheap guitars like the fender copies and les Paul put out in the later years

Own a Martin SC13E. IMHO. The Firefly is better.

Excellent video, well thought out, creative, great playing, good pace. Easy to watch. New subscriber from Tasmania

Keith, you're very down to earth and gave a good video. The ONLY thing I would change is if you explained better what you mean by Pedal Platform. AND The multi track guitar tune at the end was GREAT!! Really enjoyed it. Your Church is fortunate to have you!!

Stupid good deals on most of these fflp's i have a cpl and with some key mods are pretty fantastic insteuments. For well under $450 you have an instrument that is equal to or better than new guitars selling for $700-$800 + its almost ridiculous..."i couldn' t afford NOT to buy it honey"

Ovation electrics were works of art ahead of their time.

Trump 2024

i just cant play it with that head...lol

does it rub off on fingers after playing?

The other thing people are skeptical about is not just the integrity of the reviewers, but also if the manufacturers are sending out a guitar they know is being reviewed, they might make sure they are sending their best example which is not necessarily representative of the average piece of their gear.

FINALLY a review talking about plugging the guitar directly through USB! Thank you so much. Awesome in depth review :) Did you try using an iPad? I have another guitar with USB-C which is normally recognised by GarageBand on my Mac but not on my iOS devices and I'd love to use the Nova Go Sonic for an iPad based live rig without having to use like an iRig or something like that.

What I can't get a clear answer to, is does the button that switches presets always have to switch between clean, overdrive, dist, and high gain? Or can it cycle through 4 different clean sounds? Can I save it to where i push the button and it's dry clean, push it again it's clean with slapback delay, 3rd press and it's clean with reverb and trem, etc?

Current electrical code mandates that the hot lead of the power cord go to the fuae first and then to the switch, before continuing on to the power transformer. Using a transformer bolt as a ground is both a bad idea and against electrical code because, despite the integral star washers, those nuts do loosen up from heating and cooling cycles that cause expansion and contraction (the transfomer laminates alse expand and contract); the vibrations of transporting the case and playing through the amp are also good at loosening fasters. Find another, more secure fastener to use for the earth ground connection.

Your demo sounded great! :-) I'm impressed that they at least tried to do a proper 33.25" Ric scale. I read that you used an SVT model, which software company is that?

what's under the pickguard?

I bought my Preacher back in 1979 and still have it today. Really nice guitar.

Nice guitar

'Ghost Of A Chance' ..Good Tune from Band ..THE BLADES.. from Ireland.. ________________

I actually agree, first time I saw this few years ago in the mall, I said oh some cheap pedals that will be discontinued soon, then recently I heard a friend of mine playing his guitar and saw he was using the AC Tone and I asked him where was that sound coning from and he said from this preamp Joyo. So now im watching videos to reconfirm and should buy 1 after hehehe

Could u turn the other half into another board that connects to that one side by side but is hinged and fashioned so it can turn into a suitcase

Much better to see someone talking about the clean tones - instead of destroying the sound with lots of distortion and overdrive. I think I'll still go for the Vox Amplug3 'American' model though - it fits my requirements for jazz and blues better, being seriously portable - and it sounds great!

Really great video! At one point I owned a Viper and a Breadwinner. Like an idiot, when I got laid off at one point I sold them both. They were both really great guitars. Ovation isn't the only company that failed at making electric solid body guitars. Taylor made them for a few years and they were excellent guitars but like Ovation, no one bought them so they were discontinued. I almost bought one of the Taylor models and now regret not doing so.

I just don't understand why they have these thick necks. They are obviously shredder guitars. I am going to write them a letter...

That was a sick tune, dude.

Could i buy this off of you?

Great review, Thanks! I have the Harley Benton on which I upgraded the tuners, nut, and saddles. End result is a really nice guitar.

You forgot the teflon-washers on the guides😳

Man, that first jam you went into after your rundown had a Replacement’s “16 Blue” vibe to it, sounded great. I’m usually not a fan of the aged finished, but this one looks really sharp from a distance. Strongly considering one of these to fill my tele needs.

I hope Gibson won't sue them for building cheap and good guitars. 🤣🤣🤣

I had the harley Benton version and it weighed a TON, like 12 or 13 pounds! How heavy is this one?

Sorry if this has been asked and answered already. Did you do anything to the presets to fix the feedback issue. I got so much feedback from the speaker that the guitar was unusable. I will use the guitar without an amp exclusively. The feedback made it a deal breaker. Any help would be appreciated . Thank you
